"Recording all of the above and some of the
below"
Love is over like it never began
Flicker of life, the candle in his hand
Watch the fairy tale unfold, unwind
For
this prize he traveled in his mind
Who is guilty, who decides
Who took her life, who gained a prize
Love is cheap, life's a
lie
What kind of man would do this to his friend
Hand caressed, squeezed her life away
Slide into the darkness, the end of
the day
Swallowed with the black, cover the light
To the fire, to the night
Love is over like it never began
Flicker of
life, the candle in his hand
The queen is dying, dying and loved
Watch the fairy tale unfold, unwind, unravel
Now with his
prize he'd slide into the forest beyond
You're alone, alone...forever
Alone forever
Alone forever
He's gonna be alone
forever
Alone forever
