about

Emily decides she should write her own story.

lyrics

EMILY
WHAT THE FUCK WAS I THINKING?
YOU KNOW, I’VE BEEN DOING THIS MY WHOLE LIFE
THIS BOAT IS SINKING
WE HIT THIS ICEBERG ON OUR PROM NIGHT

AND OUT OF THOSE SELFISH ASSHOLES
WOULD YOU BELIEVE THAT HE WAS THE BEST
WELL TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE
AND DON’T I DESERVE THIS, AND OF THE REST

PLACE BETS-
10 THAT SHE STAYS, DOUBLE IF SHE GOES
THE WHOLE TOWN SAYS BEHIND MY BACK
SEVEN YEARS TO THE DAY, HE SUDDENLY PROPOSED
THE ILLUSION IS SHATTERED, IT’S CRACKED

AND I’M JUST WAITING FOR THE END OF THIS CHAPTER
BECAUSE FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE I WILL WRITE WHAT COMES AFTER
AND I’M JUST WAITING TO FIND MY OWN POWER
AND TO MAKE SURE HE HEARS ME, I’LL JUST SCREAM A LITTLE LOUDER

WHAT THE FUCK DO I SAY TO HIM?
YOU GOTTA BREAK OLD HABITS BEFORE YOU
TRAPPED AND FORGOTTEN
STUCK IN THIS TOXIC LIFE THAT’S ALL I EVER KNEW

YOU CAN’T BE A DAMSEL IN DISTRESS AND A SUPER HERO TOO
BUT IF YOU’RE GIVEN THE CHOICE, THOUGH I’M NOT, I’D KNOW WHICH CHOICE I WOULD CHOOSE

‘CUZ I’M DONE WAITING FOR THE START OF THIS CHAPTER
AND FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE I WILL WRITE WHAT COMES AFTER
I'M DONE WAITING TO FIND MY OWN POWER
AND TO MAKE SURE THEY HEAR ME, I’LL JUST SCREAM A LITTLE LOUDER

FIND MY HAPPY EVER-AFTER, AFTER ALL
BUT WILL MY REAL LIFE ENDING END UP HAPPY AFTER ALL?
