In a faraway kingdom far in space and time
There a girl lived a happy life
She had everything she needed
Clothes, food and greeted every morning the sun in the sky
Ready to praise her god every morning
She had her friends and quite fun
She liked to play and sing
She had a big dream
To become a hero
And die for the glory, king and country
She had quite a happy life
Everyone could be a liar or a cheater
Well aware of the fact, always double check
She knew the truth as she was told
As she was told, as she was taught all her life
Slowly she began to realize
To open her eyes
Everyone around was starving, didn’t have such a great life
Eating bugs to survive
Something definitely maybe wasn’t right
She began to realize she lived in a bubble
Everything just a lie
The life she knew, been blown away
Dismantled by some drama
She knew she had to go away
To flee despite all dangers
Everyone was out to get her
In fact, she’s a known defector
