This story's missing a wishing well [ the world is missing something ]
No mirror to show and tell [ there's no alternate earth to show us the true perspective of things. ]
No kiss that can break the spell [ Nothing can make us realize that not everything's good ]
I'm falling asleep [ I'm ignoring reality and slipping into my own perfect world ]
Every Prince is a fantasy [ every male we "love" is a fantasy to us ]
The witch is inside of me [ I'm cold hearted ]
The poison will wash away the memory
We kill the lights
And put on a show [ We act like nothings wrong and we shut people out. ]
It's all a lie
But you'd never know [ everyone hides they're true emotions very well ]
The star will shine
And then it will fall
And you will forget it all [ nothing good will last, but you'll shut that thought out ]
And after midnight
We're all the same [ We're all the same (pretty slef explanitory) ]
No glass shoe to bring us fame
Nobody to take the blame
We're falling apart [ your act will falter and someone will see the true you. ]
Every story's a waiting game [ we're all waiting for something ]
A flower for every name
Their colors are paling
in the falling rain [ the flower represents life and the rain represents death, so if the flowers color is paling that means death is getting closer ]
We kill the lights
And put on a show [ We act like nothings wrong and we shut people out. ]
It's all a lie
But you'd never know [ everyone hides they're true emotions very well ]
The star will shine
And then it will fall
And you will forget it all [ nothing good will last, but you'll shun that thought ]
Now you know it's so much better to pretend
There's something waiting for you here [ it's better to act like death is waiting to claim us ]
Every letter that you wrote
Has found its way to me my dear [ I know how you fell and what you're thinking ]
You can make believe that what you say
Is what I want to hear [ anything you say isn't what i want to hear because it's all a lie ]
I'll keep dancing through this beautiful,
delusional career. [ I'll keep acting like everyone else ]
Faking every tear
Looking like a comprimise suicide
Keeping all my dreams alive [ Faking death and sadness, but truely know what you want. ]
Anyways, that the way i iview it. your idea is probably different. Just thought everyone would like to know my view on this song. I've loved this song & The Birthday Masscre ever since I heard them on VampireFreaks. n_n
Great explanation of the external meaning of this song, yes very good, but I think there is a reason the song was sang in all metaphor. If you think deeper and expand your mind further, I think you'll find that the message behind all these metaphors is actually a very sad and lonely one. Everybody I know thinks I'm crazy for interpretating this song this way, but I believe this song is about a gay man singing in a female voice, because within he sees himself as a woman. I don't want to go into details of every meaning...

I don't want to go into details of every meaning because you've said it all, but go back and re-read your interpretation with what I just said in mind. I'm not gay myself but I can only imagine the loneliness of a gay man that has not come out yet. Imagine the world not accepting you and or even attempting to try to understand you. Imagine having to pretend to be someone else your whole life and imagine love being only in your fantasies because you can't show the world who you really are. To me this song is exactly this.
