NO MORE FAIRY TALES ⸻ Intro (10-Second Chant — Heartbeat + Crowd Clap) (Heartbeat. Distant crowd hum.) I loved too hard. I stayed too long. I called it love… But I was wrong. No more tears. No more pain. No more fairy tales again. (Beat drops.) ⸻ Verse 1 I used to call it love when it was breaking me Called it passion when it was pain Stayed up nights just trying to fix a thing That was never mine to save You said “forever,” looked in my eyes I built a future on your lies I was fighting just to survive While you were halfway out the door ⸻ Pre-Chorus I bent till I almost disappeared Swallowed every doubt and fear But love shouldn’t feel like war And I’m not living like that anymore ⸻ Hook (Big. Anthem. Repeatable.) I GAVE MY ALL — YOU GAVE THE MINIMUM I GAVE MY HEART — YOU GAVE ME SCARS You said you’d never walk away But that’s just who you are Is true love really real? Or just a fairy tale we’re told? ‘Cause I kept bleeding for a promise That was never gold No more crying on my bedroom floor No more begging you for more I won’t settle for the bare minimum Not anymore. Not anymore. ⸻ Verse 2 I shrank myself to fit your world Lost my voice just to keep the peace Called it loyalty, called it growth But I was breaking piece by piece I was your shelter in the storm Your midnight call when things went wrong But when I needed someone strong You were already gone ⸻ Pre-Chorus (Shorter Build) I kept forgiving what hurt my soul Kept calling chaos “home” But love shouldn’t feel like survival mode And I’m finally letting go ⸻ Hook (Bigger — Crowd Echo Feel) I GAVE MY ALL — (All!) YOU GAVE THE MINIMUM — (Minimum!) I GAVE MY HEART — YOU GAVE ME SCARS You swore forever wouldn’t end But forever fell apart Is true love really real? Or just a fairy tale we’re sold? ‘Cause I kept bleeding for a promise That turned so cold No more crying on my bedroom floor No more begging you for more I won’t settle for the bare minimum Not anymore. ⸻ Spoken-Word Breakdown (Music Drops — Piano + Low Bass) You said, “If you love me, stay.” So I stayed. Through the yelling. Through the silence. Through nights I barely recognized my own reflection. I called it patience. I called it growth. I called it “every relationship has storms.” But storms aren’t supposed to feel like war zones. Love isn’t supposed to make you small. And I will NEVER Call pain passion again. Never again. (Drums rumble back in.) ⸻ Final Chorus (Key Lift / Stadium Explosion) I GAVE MY ALL — AND THAT’S MY POWER I LOVED OUT LOUD — I OWN THAT TRUTH If true love’s real, it won’t feel like trauma It won’t look anything like you No more fairy tales No more broken vows No more bare minimum I KNOW MY WORTH NOW If love comes, it comes correct With respect, with depth, with honor And if it doesn’t — I stand alone Stronger than ever Not anymore. Not again. I will never lose myself Just to love a man. NO MORE FAIRY TALES.
