lyrics

Cinderella moment's fade out
Back to normality
This castle made of marble
Falls apart into the sea
(The) glass slipper breaks to pieces
It rips into your skin
No kiss can ever free you
From the solitude within

So don't wait until midnight
Don't hold your breath until its passed
Don't wait until midnight
Cinderella moments never last

Once upon a time no more
(No) needles prick your skin
40 days of sleepless nights
Your nightmares creeping in
This charming man has come to call
And sweep you off your feet
(You're) a trophy for a hopeless cause
Your heart will never beat

So don't wait until midnight
Don't hold your breath until its passed
Don't wait until midnight
Cinderella moments never last

A fairytale of broken lies
You'll dream your life away
burn until there's darkness left
And there's nothing left to say
Sit and watch the ripples flow
On to your endless sleep
Whichever way the dust will blow
This story's yours to keep

So don't wait until midnight
Don't hold your breath until its passed
Don't wait until midnight
Cinderella moments never last
