Unconventional Fairytales: Fighting for Real Dreams
Lyrics
I've never been the girl
I've never been the type of person
That got to go to Disneyworld
Who had the opportunity to visit Disneyworld
My way of wishing
My method of expressing desires
Was being ambitious
Involved being ambitious and hardworking
I've never had the time
I've never had the luxury of time
To brush my hair and dream all night
To focus on personal dreams, like brushing my hair and dreaming at night
My kind of happy ending
My version of a happy ending
Was being self sufficient
Was achieving self-sufficiency
Too busy paying all my bills
Too occupied with financial responsibilities
To get that caught up in my feels
To become deeply immersed in emotions
So if my life looks like a fairytale
So if my life seems like a fairy tale
It's only 'cause I fought like hell
It's only because I struggled intensely
The best dreams don't come true
The best dreams are not realized
When you're asleep
When you're asleep or inactive
If it looks like I have it all
If it appears that I have everything
It's 'cause I had to skip the ball
It's because I had to forgo some pleasures
I never was a fan of fantasy
I never enjoyed indulging in fantasies
No, I've never been the girl
No, I've never been the type of person
That got to go to Disneyworld
Who had the chance to experience Disneyworld
And my idea of a prince
My ideal prince is someone practical and sensible
Is someone with common sense
Not someone focused on superficial qualities
Who doesn't care if I'm brunette or blonde
Someone who doesn't judge based on hair color or body weight
Or if I put a few pounds on
And is supportive, doing chores while I pursue my passions
Does dishes while I write a song
Doing dishes while I engage in creative activities like songwriting
And he's patient with my mom, and
Being patient with my mother and understanding
Doesn't mind that I can pay the bills
Accepting that I can contribute financially
(Too good to be real)
(Seems almost too good to be real)
And I like how that feels
And I appreciate the positive feelings associated with that
So if my life looks like a fairytale
So if my life seems like a fairy tale
It's only 'cause I fought like hell
It's only because I faced challenges with determination
The best dreams don't come true
The best dreams are not realized
When you're asleep
When you're inactive or not fully engaged
If it looks like I have it all
If it appears that I have everything
It's 'cause I had to skip the ball
It's because I had to sacrifice some experiences
I never was a fan of fantasy
I never enjoyed indulging in fantasies
(Ah, ah, ah)
(Vocalization expressing emotion)
I've never been the girl
I've never been the type of person
That got to go to Disneyworld
Who had the chance to experience Disneyworld
And my daughter wants to go
Even though my daughter desires to go
But I'll probably say no
I'll likely decline the opportunity
