Back when we were small

we were told happily ever after came to the ones who were good and pure

helped everyone and were lucky enough to find someone rich to marry

but as we get older we realize that isnt the case

there are no witches and magic mirrors and poison apples to deal with to have happily ever after

The monster we have to fight are closer than we think

no matter how good and pure you are the world still treats us like shit

Castles arent over the horizon

we build them

stone by stone

with someone we love

we make happily ever after

And when it falls apart it feels like the end of the story

evil won

storybook closed and burned

but its not the case

we rebuild from the ashes

and rise

stronger than ever

With each time evil wins we stand up again

this time tougher and harder to beat

Not many can stand on their own which is why the princess needs a prince to save them

but the untold story comes from those

who stand tall and get knocked down

over and over again and doesnt give up

Even when it gets rough

The reason I am able to stand tall and build happily ever after

is because you gave me strength and showed me

We build Happily ever after together

stone by stone

smiling

until the palace is perfect
