And this one is certainly an interesting story. 
It starts with an ending and we’re both characters in play. 
On the same stage but on a different page you’ll go on to become the queen of some kingdom. 
And I’ll be that monster of myth off in some forest, mire or filth. 
This time around 
I’ll meet you halfway and 
I won’t spend my life lying awake at night. 
And they’ll say 
I’m the emerald missing from your crown. 
The greatest escapist the world has ever known. 
Now it’s so clear to me. 
We should have seen this coming back at the beginning. 
We both chose to take this road to the same place but at a different pace. 
This time around 
I’ll meet you halfway 
And I won’t spend my life 
Lying awake at night 
And I’ll say 
I’m the fabled one that let you down. 
The greatest escapist the world has ever known.
