Fables

[00:16.92] All fables fail you when you're older
[00:21.80] And still, the mirror on your wall
[00:24.55] Keeps you from staring into the darkness
[00:31.82] And visions keeping you awake
[00:36.82] In fairytales, you try to stay
[00:40.24] They echo back at you like a chorus
[00:46.58] And you're still too young to know
[00:48.65] When you're living for a ghost
[00:51.28] Spinning fables when the brightest color's fading
[00:56.64] Stories fail you when you're grown
[00:59.05] Can't hide us from the fall
[01:02.09] But my love for you is bold
[01:04.19] Take it all
[01:08.11]
[01:17.96] I found my old friends back at home
[01:22.85] And for my father, I had all the answers
[01:27.72] Paid a price for pretending
[01:32.63] Heroes and villains I had made
[01:37.96] They're all I have left of my day
[01:41.66] In one more page of unwritten endings
[01:47.46] Am I still too young to know
[01:50.50] I've been living for a ghost?
[01:52.67] In my mind, the brightest colors are unfaded
[01:57.71] Stories fail you when you're grown
[02:00.29] Don't believe them anymore
[02:02.97] My love for you is bold, but it can't save you
[02:08.18] My love for you is bold, but it won't change you
[02:12.78] My love for you is bold
[02:15.42] Take it all
[02:19.45]
[02:23.33] How long can I be golden
[02:27.78] If stories I've told can't save my love?
[02:32.86] How do I be, how do I be bold?
[02:39.45] How do I be bold?
[02:44.67] Stories all been told
[02:49.72] Can't save you from it all
[02:53.06]
