Ghosted By Fairytale Songs

https://suno.com/song/c2bd344d-6db8-4751-84bd-1d4ce8cf93b6

Verse 1

Grew up on Disney endings

White horses and wedding bells

Nobody warned a cowboy

’Bout lawyers and living hells

Thought every kiss meant forever

Turns out forever sells

Chorus

I get ghosted by fairytale songs every time

They sugarcoat the warning signs

They stop at the kiss, fade out at the ring

Never show you the cost of everything

They sell you a dream in a three-minute rhyme

I get ghosted by fairytale songs every time

Verse 2

Mama said love’s a castle

Built on faith and trust

Radio said “hold her tight”

Like that alone’s enough

But castles crack in weather

And fairy dust is dust

Chorus

I get ghosted by fairytale songs every time

They sugarcoat the warning signs

They stop at the kiss, fade out at the ring

Never show you the cost of everything

They sell you a dream in a three-minute rhyme

I get ghosted by fairytale songs every time

Bridge (half-spoken barroom sermon feel)

Nobody sings about Tuesday nights

When the magic’s gone and you’re counting fights

No violins when the check won’t clear

Just two grown people and too much fear

Final Chorus (lift it slightly)

I get ghosted by fairytale songs every time

They make forever sound so fine

But love’s a job and a daily grind

Not castles drawn in neon signs

Still I turn up that old slow line…

’Cause fairy tale songs still get me every time

  • sounds like a song about somebody later on in life sitting out on his porch in the mountains somewhere, say, northern cal, self-reflecting on his poor lifelong choice in women. 😉

    But love’s a job and a daily grind - that's a true statement, but it's less of a grind when you're with the right person, operative word being right ;)

    strange combination on this one with cowboy outlaw sining about Disney fairy tails. reminds me of Shreck (movie) in a way. pullback the curtain type thing.

    ha ha ha . I remember Snow White when I was kid ect. We all grew up on fairy tales , then reality hits , it's almost child abuse by lazy parents . Hey Kid life ain't that show would be more appropriate to tell a kid . it be at least a warning , Hey kid a nightmare is coming . But that probably never happens he or she lets Mikey Snow White and says ain't that cute.

  • Watch Snow White , Can't edit after awhile
