Lyrics

Fairytales and Ecstasy by Micheal Lee Collins
© 2009 All Rights Reserved


She was on her way to the other side of town
thinking bout where she's going makes her hands shake
she pops another pill just to calm herself down
oh she knows she's headed for heartache

but oh cause I know all the words she's sayin'
in that pretty little head she's prayin'
won't somebody take me from this prison
and burn it down to the ground

I look in your eyes and I don't feel a thing
this physical touch baby it don't mean much to me
and you don't feel like fairytales & Ecstasy

he packed up the kids and he watched 'em drive away
they will never know what he was thinkin'
he put his wedding ring down in the ashtray
and he stood there at the counter drinkin'

don't even think you come close
there's a voice inside me telling me no, no you don't

Great melody. Excellent recording and vocals.

Amazing tone to the vocalists voice. Almost crossover. Good story to the lyrics.

Radio ready. Awesome tune. Vocals are fantastic, instrumentation, producing. This is a top pick.
