Lyrics by Zippel, Lloyd Webber

Thought I was too smart for this

Not a sucker for a kiss

Turned my back to the world

I was protected

I was so not naïve

With no heart on my sleeve

Always walked out before

I was rejected

Fairytales are not to be believed

I blame myself if I have been deceived

I was fine on my own

Made of steel, hard as stone

I know I have a heart because you broke it

I was so unaware

That I could fall so hard

But what good is a heart

If you don't care?

Like a damsel in distress

In a torn party dress

Someonе I never met

I was prеtending

Should have known all along

That I need to be strong

For a girl who's like me

There's no happy ending

I was not a hard one to convince

Girls like me don't end up with a prince

Found out love is a hoax

One of life's little jokes

I know I have a heart because you broke it

And it's shattered and bruised

And now the laugh's on me

Anyone want a heart that's barely used?

Fairytales are not to be believed

I blame myself if I have been deceived

I was fine on my own

Made of steel, hard as stone

I know I have a heart because you broke it

I was so unaware

That I could feel so bad

But what good is a heart

If you're not there?

Now I won't need a heart

'Cause I don't care
