No Happy Endings

Love’s a funny thing right now but I don’t doubt it cause of how you used to look at me

Do you know what’s gonna happen, since you died can you look into the future, G

It’s funny when we’re in a crowd we think the most but isolation brings epiphany

It’s amazing where our minds will go whenever there’s solidarity 

I’ve never had to feel alone before because my heart has always had a lovely echo

My knuckles have all turned white because even though you died I haven’t let go

I’m not a sad little boy and you’re not a fish my mom can go replace from Petco

You might think you hear tears hit the floor but my eyes, they aren’t wet though 

This call is long distance so when a question’s presented please don’t put the line on hold

I just want to know, if my futures in your hands could you tell me what you hold

If the devil put all his chips on the line would you see his bet or would you fold

Will I have the chance to walk along an emerald trail to see a kingdom built of gold  

I checked into the heartbreak hotel last night, I got the last room it’s number thirteen

Turns out I have the share the bed with a princess half my age, she lost all hopes of becoming queen

She said the kingdom had been destroyed by a mess of emotions too vast to clean

Told me she’s condemned to this establishment, she can never again be seen 

I asked her why she didn’t wish upon a star to go back to where things felt right

She told me that princesses exist but fairy tales don’t and when she looks up it’s dark at night 

Said this is the real world and you always lose and you usually don’t put up a fight

Quoted those who say things will work out and added two pennies on which she etched “not quite” 

I suppose that those who know the future are condemned to only demise

Because if a happy ending isn’t real then it only ends when we all die

And if a beautiful princess can never see a single star shoot across the sky

Then who am I to make the claim that one day as angels we will fly.
