ADDY:
I DIDN'T REALIZE
THAT THIS NEW LIFE WOULD MEAN LIVING A LIE
AND WALKING ON PINS AROUND EVERY TURN,
FOOLING THOSE PASSING BY.
I GUESS I'M HERE TO DO MY DUTY,
'CAUSE IF I DON'T, I KNOW IT MEANS WAR.
AND I KNOW I MADE A PROMISE TO MY FAMILY,
BUT I CAN'T IGNORE WHO I WAS BEFORE.
DO PEOPLE FORGET THE TRUTH THEY LET IN?
CAN I BE THIS NEW PERSON WITHOUT LOSING MY OLD SKIN?
IS IT EASY TO COPE WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE A HOME
AND THE WORDS ON YOUR TONGUE FIGHT THE STRENGTH IN YOUR BONES?
I'M TRAPPED IN THIS PLACE, AND I KNOW I CAN'T HIDE.
CAN I PUT ON A GOOD FACE AND BE THE PERFECT BRIDE?
IF I PLAY BY THE RULES, I KNOW WE'LL BE FINE.
IF THERE'S ANY WAY TO DO THIS, SOMEONE GIVE ME A SIGN!
HOW WILL TOMORROW SEEM WHEN I'M
MARRIED TO MY NIGHTMARES AND I'VE LOST EVERY DREAM?
I FEEL LIKE A FAKE, BUT THERE'S TOO MUCH AT STAKE.
IF THERE'S ANYBODY THERE, HELP ME OUT OF THIS MISTAKE.
I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT CASTLE WALLS WOULD BE MY END.
