Description
Ditch the dream.Life wasn't meant to be a fairytale.
Life is about experience.
We all go through the good and bad things.
And we dont always have a happily ever after.

Cinderella's on her bedroom floor
She's got a
Crush on the guy at the liquor store
Cause Mr. Charming don't come home anymore
And she forgets why she came here
Sleeping Beauty's in a foul mood
For shame she says
None for you dear prince, I'm tired today
I'd rather sleep my whole life away than have you keep me from dreaming
[Chorus:]
'cause I don't care for your fairytales
You're so worried about the maiden though you know
She's only waiting on the next best thing
Snow White is doing dishes again cause
What else can you do
With seven itty-bitty men?
Sends them to bed and calls up a friend
Says will you meet me at midnight?
The tall blonde lets out a cry of despair says
Would have cut it myself if I knew men could climb hair
I'll have to find another tower somewhere and keep away from the windows
[Chorus]
Once upon a time in a faraway kingdom
Man made up a story said that I should believe him
Go and tell your white knight that he's handsome in hindsight
But I don't want the next best thing
So I sing and hold my head down and I break these walls round me
Can't take no more of your fairytale love
[Chorus]
I don't care
I don't care
Worry bout the maiden though you know
She's only waiting spent the whole life being graded on the sanctity of patience and a dumb
Appreciation
But the story needs some mending and a better happy ending
Cause I don't want the next best thing
No no I don't want the next best thing

haha, this reminded me of a little girl..
(we have a school event back then)
She told me her tooth fell and was missing, and then she told me that her mom told her that when your tooth fell and is missing, it is taken by a Tooth Fairy.
I only said an 'oh'
then when I got home, I realized something.
And I wished I have thought of it earlier so I can tell the kid.
.. but I can't remember that line..
..
so yeah...
Anyway, this is awesome and adorable.
I like the way how it tells its story..
.. and at the same time expressing a darker side of reality (in which was covered by fairytales)..

Never give up on the dream. Not because you need something to cling to.
But because you can feel the glow from just beyond your reach.
And thats the dream we're chasing.
heck yeah.

I especially love the meaning behind this piece. It kind of subconsciously conveys it, and the picture is cute as well.
It kind of saddens me that a shitload of the comments here are just 'its cute'.

Thanks so much Tobiiii

This is really cute ♥ It's so ironic how im doing an english project on Happily Ever After, and you drew this. I can totally relate (: And like how little kids think about only happy things because parents only let them see happy movies... But then they're exposed to the truth later. Oh how sad ;; Well manda, i really looove your traditional art so much! You inspire me with every picture! I seriously want to just go buy some pens and try drawing with them ♥♥ I know my doodles could never turn out the same as yours~ And that's why i look up to you so much.. You're such a rad trad artist ;D I look forward to your next piece! I shall continue to stalk your art hehe ♥ ilu

Doesn't meant there isn't beauty to it...just means there's more work to it.
Very striking, very nice.
