Once Upon
a Time
(The End)

The end begins today
The same as yesterday
The good outweighs the bad
So why are we so sad?
Every time we get ahead, it feels like we’re moving backwards, instead
Every time you look at me I feel like you’re thinking you’d rather be, free

We’re stuck, no help in sight
Blown off-course without light
We started out so well
Now we’re sleepwalking through hell
Do we finally face the truth?  We’ve run out of options.  We’ve run out of youth.
Do we stay or do we go?  Forgetting the memories that once made us grow.

The end of yesterday
Begins with us today
Every time we get ahead, it feels like we’re moving backwards, instead
Every time you look at me I feel like you’re thinking you’d rather be, free

 

            Please, don’t ever say it’ll end
            We’ll see some better days in the future
            Before too long we will be there
            Baby, please don’t go away
            ‘Cause if you leave me now, you’ll never know that I loved you
            Once upon a time.  Once upon a time.
            Once upon a time…
