Fairytale
Saint Asonia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now the game is over
So do you remember
All the time you spent
Saying things you never really meant?
It was all pretend
And it caught up to you in the end
(Caught up to you in the end)
So your flight has landed
And you're feeling stranded
But you will fake your way through
The wreckage of one more useless day

Just one more day
Just one more useless day

Play the victim again
It keeps getting older
Your story is over

Your fairy tale's at the end
(Fairy tale's at the end)
Your fairy tale's at the end
(Fairy tale's at the end)
You're starting over, again
Your fairy tale's at the end

You want a chance to rewind
Or maybe change your one-track mind
But you're too afraid of changing
So you're locking yourself up
In that safe place
In that same old place
(In that same old place)

Play the victim again
It keeps getting older
Your story is over

Your fairy tale's at the end
(Fairy tale's at the end)
Your fairy tale's at the end
(Fairy tale's at the end)
You're starting over, again
Your fairy tale's at the end

Never thought you'd ever feel this way, again
Now, misery's your only friend

Everything you said but never really meant
Caught up to you in the end

Your fairy tale's at the end
(Fairy tale's at the end)
Your fairy tale's at the end
(Fairy tale's at the end)
You're starting over, again
Your fairy tale's at the end!

Your fairy tale!
Is at the end!





Your fairy tale
Is at the end!

Overall Meaning

The song "Fairytale" by Saint Asonia is a tale of someone finally facing the reality of their version of events. It is about someone who has been playing the victim for so long that they have started to believe their own lies. The song's opening lines suggest that the game is up and the person is now facing the fact that they never meant what they said. All the pretense and lies have finally caught up to them.


The second verse refers to the person being stranded and feeling lost but trying their best to fake their way through another day. The chorus repeats the notion that their fairytale is over, and they are starting over again. The bridge suggests that this person wants to change but is too afraid of it, so they lock themselves in the same safe place over and over again.


Overall, the song is about the need for individuals to face up to the truth and stop living in their own imagined world, which ultimately leads to misery.


Line by Line Meaning

Now the game is over
The time for pretending is done


So do you remember
Do you recall what you said?


All the time you spent
The hours that you wasted


Saying things you never really meant?
Making empty promises


It was all pretend
Nothing was real


And it caught up to you in the end
You were finally found out


So your flight has landed
You've arrived at your destination


And you're feeling stranded
You're lost and alone


But you will fake your way through
You'll pretend everything's okay


The wreckage of one more useless day
The aftermath of another futile day


Just one more day
One more unproductive day


Just one more useless day
Just another day that accomplishes nothing


Play the victim again
Put on a show of being wronged


It keeps getting older
The act is getting tired


Your story is over
Your excuse has run out


Your fairy tale's at the end
The myth you've been living is nearly gone


(Fairy tale's at the end)
The illusion has nearly disappeared


You're starting over, again
You're beginning anew once more


You want a chance to rewind
You want to go back in time


Or maybe change your one-track mind
You wish to alter your way of thinking


But you're too afraid of changing
You're petrified of transformation


So you're locking yourself up
You're confining yourself


In that safe place
In the comfortable, familiar zone


In that same old place
In the identical, usual spot


(In that same old place)
Over and over again


Never thought you'd ever feel this way, again
You thought you'd never experience this again


Now, misery's your only friend
Sadness is all you have left


Everything you said but never really meant
All of the lies and deception


Caught up to you in the end
Your dishonesty finally got you


(Your fairy tale's at the end)
The fable is almost finished


Your fairy tale!
Your myth!


Is at the end!
Is almost gone!


Your fairy tale
Your fabricated story


Is at the end!
Is almost over!

Another great classic. I promise this Group is hitting hard. I hope the album has a song with maybe a suspense beginning kinda like never too late. Over all I will buy this album and its just good to have Adam back

@sirjamesysenkoucxv613

***** I don't want them to die. :c It's gonna kill me if Adam stops singing. I was so happy to see him join a new band and I'm sure a lot of his fans would be really disappointed to see him go.

@tommysyme3224

Dying Slowly is one of my favs...Every song has been great hearing Adam with fire/inspiration again!!
