Lyrics
CINDERELLA
LOST INSIDE THIS BOOK TURNING PAGES
SHE?S TOO FAR TO LOOK BEEN GONE FOR AGES
NOW I GO BACK TO THE DAY
SHE TOUCHED ME THAT FAMILIAR WAY
AND I CAN SEE THE STORY IN HER EYES
CHORUS:
IS SHE REAL? IS IT TRUE?
THAT CINDERELLA?S GOT MY OTHER SHOE
SHE?S A BOOK AWAY AND I?M UNDER HER SPELL
DOES SHE KNOW ABOUT ME?
DOES CINDERELLA HAVE THE DECENCY
TO PULL ME BACK INTO HER FAIRY TALE?
ALL THE CHANCE I HAD IS GONE FOREVER
BUT WITHOUT INTENT OF TIES TO SEVER
WE STARTED UP A NEW CAMPAIGN
I RAN IN CIRCLES TOWARD THE DRAIN
I WISH THAT SHE WAS CONSCIOUS OF MY PAIN
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
THROUGH THE WALLS OF MAKE-BELIEVE
THERE IS NO WAY TO BE SEEN
IF ONLY SHE COULD HEAR ME SCREAM
UNDERNEATH THIS STONE THAT HAS BEEN PUSHED ASIDE
FROM SKIN TO BONE THE HURT I CANNOT
HIDE SO I WILL KEEP IT WHERE
THE CARPET MEETS THE FLOOR AND THERE
I?LL LOSE HER ONE LAST TIME
CHORUS
