lyrics

I get a funny kind of feeling
‘Round the mirror
I’ll stare looking for meaning
‘Til I cry
When I’m walking through the city
No one sees me
They don’t know that there’s
A princess passing by

They never notice someone’s standing
Where I’m standing
So they run into me
Staring at their phones
Then they vaguely frown
And look straight through me
Don’t realize my face
Is one they’ve always unknown…

In fairytales there’s always
Someone strong and brave
And there’s always someone beautiful
They think they need to save
And fairytales only exist in books
From olden days
I wish upon a star to see
A world where the hero could be
A fairytale princess who looks like me…
A fairytale princess who looks like me

Sometimes weeks go by I feel
I’m just a monster
I can’t even bring myself
To go outside
There are moments
When at best I’m an imposter
There are days I only
Have the strength to hide

But if I just give in I’m giving
Into nothing
A nothing with the power
To shape lives
So I’m standing up
And walking out that front door
I’m dressing up tonight in
All my own designs

In fairytales there’s always
Someone strong and brave
And there’s always someone beautiful
They think they need to save
If fairytales on movie screens are myths
That make us slaves
Then imagine what the world could be
If only the world could see
A fairytale princess who looks like me
A fairytale princess who looks like me…

Open your eyes and really see me
Free your heart and start believing
In me…
Just as you see
In a princess like me…

In fairytales there’s always
Someone strong and brave
And there’s always someone beautiful
They think they need to save
If fairytales only exist in songs
Sung on a stage
Just imagine what our world could be
Beyond the fairytale you see
A fairytale princess who looks like me…

You might believe in you again
If you start believing in
A fairytale princess who looks like me…

A fairytale princess who looks like me
