Once upon a time I used to romanticize
Used to be somebody never mind
Don't miss it that much now
I think it's sinking in
Days that I wonder where I've been
In picture perfect porcelain
But I won't lose a pound
You say I would make a better liar
I never face the music when it's dire
I breathe disaster, ever after
Don't you pull away from me now
Don't you move, can't you stay where you are just for now
I could be your perfect disaster
You could be my ever after,
After all I could be your perfect disaster
You could be my ever after
Apologies I'm not myself,
But I can guarantee
That when I get back you won't believe
That you knew me well
Don't want to think about it
I'm f*cking tired of getting sick abou tit
And fight for something
Nobody told ya this is gonna fold ya
We go marching in like toy soldiers
To have and hold ya over sold ya
They're marching like toy soldiers
Somehow don't, you dare fail
Fail me now ever after
Face the music when it's dire
Once upon a time
This place was beautiful and mine
But now it's just a bottom line
Barely comes to mind
Ever After was mine
I'll be your disaster, ever after
So fire away
Goodbye
Ever After is about the lead singer Josh's eating disorder. He has personified it as a girl and he is saying that he could be the girls "Ever After" and it would complete him. In the opening line " once upon a time I uses to romanticize uses,to be somebody never mind don't miss it that much now." Josh is saying that he used to romanticize about being thin, but he doesn't anymore. He lies to himself saying that things are ok when they are not. It is a truly beautiful song.
