Take my hand
My poisoned apple,
Tempt fate.
It's all been done before.
Cinderella just happened to have a perfect size 6.
You think Sleeping beauty was really asleep?
Fool.  Try passed out, drunk
It was a cold winter's night
And her prince happened to be freezing cold
Shock always wakes a drunk from their sleep.
Rapunzel you say?
She's worst of all.
Strangled her Prince with her long  blonde hair in the night
To claim  his (mis)Fortune.
Snow White and her seven dwarves,
the Whore.
Concocted her plan when the dwarves could
Satisfy her no more.
That poor old hag didn't poison her apples
If she killed of her customers
Where would a door-to-door saleswoman get her busniness?
But I'm different, you know,
I'm not a Princess asleep in the snow.
I'm just a little girl in need of some luck,
I've tried every frog and never found my Prince,
Try the apples my dear, I hear their nice.
One for me? Don't be silly
I don't care for the taste of poison
Taste of so sweet.
Eyelashes flutter and eyes blinks.
Try the apples my dear, thee not for the meek.

when im a princess lock me up in your tallest tower and let me fade in the your memories

Wow I love it! You should hear the song "Fairytales" by Sara Barielles. It's kinda telling the same story. I love the horror behind the sweet face!!
