Soulspace97 - Thriller

Verse 1 I guess fairy tales were right We just learned the names too late Every monster in the dark Had a human face We grew up thinking evil wore a crown Or hid beneath the bed at night But it learned to speak so softly And it learned to dress just right Pre-Chorus We said, “It’s just a story, just a lie” Something meant to pass the time But every word I tried to forget Kept crawling through my mind Chorus So I see myself in every line Every truth we try to hide If the story feels too real Maybe that’s the reason why We call it fiction, call it art Just to keep it far from heart But the page keeps breaking through Like a mirror when you look too hard Verse 2 We called it fiction, closed the book Said, “That would never be me” But every chapter that I read Was staring back at reality The heroes fall, the villains pray The lines all blur in shades of gray No happy ending guaranteed Just choices we’re afraid to make
