Story Behind The Song
Fairytale was born out of a place of such raw yearning that it wrote itself in about an hour. I had fallen for a teacher archetype in my life. There were ethical restrictions surrounding our situation that prevented any sort of real-life romantic relationship from occurring between the two of us. My imagination, however, knew no such boundaries. I had blinders on to all else?I only wanted to live in the ?Once upon a time?? of the fairytale inside my mind. 3/2006

Lyrics
I wanna be anybody but me
'Cause if i wasn't me I could be with you
I'm running into all your boundaries
Crashin into your concrete point of view
It's all kind of a fairytale inside my mind
A queer kind of eternity inside my mind
I wanna bathe in all your mystery
I'm already lying naked in the room
Your propaganda's washing over me
Rinsing away my good girl attitude
It's all kind of a fairytale inside my mind
A queer kind of eternity inside my mind
It's all kind of a fairytale inside my mind
A queer kind of eternity inside my mind
I spend hours with you in my head
I'm reachin' for you from my bed
I wanna cross that line
Start living once upon a time
Solo
It's all kind of a fairytale inside my mind
A queer kind of eternity inside my mind
It's all kind of a fairytale inside my mind
A queer kind of eternity inside my mind
Inside my mind
Inside my mind
Inside my mind
