Once Upon A Time

by PJ Perry

Once I fell head over heels for you

Now I trip over my feet running away

You say that I can just make do

I can't even make it through the day

Once you said you want to be winning me over

You ended up pinning me down

Promises broken that you'd get sober

In your drink I wish you'd drown

Once you said you wanted to capture my heart

You ended up holding it captive

You tick off each day we're together on your chart

As a prisoner I mark the wall each day I live

Once you said you would love me forever

Now I only live for today

All that you can say is 'whatever'

I don't care anymore what game you play

Once upon a time

There was lots of love and laughter

Now I'm just a mime

Where's the happily ever after?
