Once Upon A Time

Once upon a time there was a girl
who lived in a land of dreams unreal
hiding from reality
treated like a stranger
living with her fantasies
trapped within their world
Once upon a time her hopes had
died
no one there to hear her futile cries
living in a house of stone
no one on her side
a family in name alone
no place left to hide
Once upon a dream a man will come
and give her everything she wants
and loves
but in the morning she'll awake
to face the room around her
it's just another lonely day
and bitterness surrounds her
bitterness surrounds
