Once upon a time or so the stories told everyone lives happily as the end unfolds Forever sweet and never ending All I want is to know why life is not a lullaby Reality tells a different kind of tale Everybody tries to win but everyone fails It's never sweet and never ending All I want is to know why life is not a lullaby It's all a lie Tell me why It's all a lie the lullaby All a lie, all a lie Tell me why, tell me why All a lie, all a lie Lie All I want is to know why life is not a lullaby
