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
