[Verse 1] I should’ve known I wouldn’t be someone crucial. You’re the lead, and I’m the one who makes the drama. Guess these stories don’t always work out for everyone… You’re the hero, and I’m not even the villain. I’m just a person who just lives in the village. I only get my appearance on page one.. [Pre-chorus] When Cinderella got her prince, was it really forever? And when Snow White got her first kiss, did it get any better…? Cause.. [Chorus] Once upon a time, I fell in love- Got my heart broke when I fucked it up. A person in a book where nobody knows me. That’s all I am in this timeless story- Once upon a time, someone caught my eye. Said he was taken, so I had to lie. Couldn't try again cause I learned from my history. A once upon a time without someone’s happy ending… [Verse 2] I’m the one who just fills in the gaps. Woke up in a ball gown, could you imagine that? So I’ll sit and wait till I’m on and then I’ll go right back. [Pre-chorus] When Ariel had her first take, did true love really see her? And when Jasmine was on the carpet, was it getting weaker? Cause.. [Chorus] Once upon a time, I fell in love- Got my heart broke when I fucked it up. A person in a book where nobody knows me. That’s all I am in this timeless story- Once upon a time, someone caught my eye. Said he was taken, so I had to lie. Couldn't try again cause I learned from my history. A once upon a time without someone’s happy ending… [Bridge] (Ahhh..) (Ahhhh..) A minor detail, that’s all I have to be… (Ahhh..) (Ahhhh..) Guess that’s all there is to me.. [Outro] Once upon a time, I fell in love. Never again, I’ll give that fantasy up… [Finish]
