It`s a cold northern rain
Two degrees above freezing day
I`m standing outside the chinese
With a glow lamp to light my way
See to me now
There`s no manual to show you how
But there`s reams of scrapbooks in my basement
And a spiral staircase down
So pour it out
It`s just a fairytale
You can`t even trust yourself
You`ve got to mark your trail
Yeah, people from our past
Their appeal just don`t last
Write them off for dead and then
You`ve realized they`ve died too fast
I`m supposed to be a rock
But I could not bear the shock
All a wreck at the airport
My nerves are all I got
So pour it out
It`s just a fairytale
You can`t convince yourself
That you`re on the right trail
You see through
My eyes
But you`ll never see through me
But I wish you all the best
That I must confess
I did not think I passed or failed
But it should not be a test
So pour it out
It`s just a fairytale
You don`t even hear yourself
You`re just whistling down the trail
You can see through me
You can see through me
