Lyrics
(Verse 1)
You said forever; then you said goodbye.
You wore that smile, that same old lie.
I found your letters tucked away;
All empty words you never meant to say.
(Pre-Chorus)
Your love was like a paper plane;
Soaring high, then down in flames.
It's time to cut these puppet strings;
Gonna find out what freedom brings.
(Chorus)
'Cause this love story's out of ink,
You were never the missing piece.
I was wrong to think we could write a fairy tale.
But you left me in the cold; the truth's already told.
This love was never gold; now it's time to set sail.
(Verse 2)
You played the part of Prince Charming,
But your castle was alarming.
It took some time to see the signs;
The mirrors, smoke, and all your lines.
(Pre-Chorus)
Your love was like a paper plane;
Soaring high, then down in flames.
It's time to cut these puppet strings;
Gonna find out what freedom brings.
(Chorus)
'Cause this love story's out of ink,
You were never the missing piece.
I was wrong to think we could write a fairy tale.
But you left me in the cold; the truth's already told.
This love was never gold; now it's time to set sail.
(Bridge)
I'm not your damsel, not your dream,
I broke those chains and found my theme.
You thought you had me under your spell,
But I'm writing a new story to tell.
You can keep your kingdom, keep your throne;
I've found a different castle to call my own.
You saw my love as a game to play,
But this queen's making her own way.
(Chorus)
'Cause this love story's out of ink,
You were never the missing piece.
I was wrong to think we could write a fairy tale.
But you left me in the cold; the truth's already told.
This love was never gold; now it's time to set sail.
(Outro)
I'm moving on, but I'll leave you this song--
A melody for the love that went wrong.
Goodbye was hard, but I'm taking the pen,
To write a new love story again.
To draft another chapter in the wind.
To script a tale where love will never end.
