Life UnderView - Once Upon A Time Lyrics

Once upon a time
In a faraway land arose an evil king
Every place he controlled
People couldn't even scream
They were not allowed to speak
Not allowed to talk
For he wanted to monitor
Even what they thought
Even what they thought

It was bad, it was terrible
There seemed to be no end
Every strategy they tried
Every rebellion a bitter end

It was once upon a time
Story told in every book
Every new thought was a crime
People trembled and shook
Is there hope that will come
Before the story ends
Once upon a time
To defeat the king
On who can we depend

One day a young boy arose
One that everyone overlooked
He had a sparkle in his eyes
But a weapon he never took
Traveled far to reach the place
The king may be fought
So many questioned his ability
Will it all be for naught

It was bad, it was terrible
Could this lead to a happy end
Every strategy they tried
Every rebellion a bitter end

It was once upon a time
Story told in every book
Every new thought was a cry
People trembled and shook
Is there hope that will come
Before the story ends
Once upon a time
Will this young boy the king upend

The boy did not have strength
He did not have skills
The king was about to put an end
Playing for the thrills
But the boy rose up
And a fantastic trick he did display
One the king hadn't anticipated
It ended his reign that day

It was once upon a time
Story told in every book
Every new day the sun did shine
People in celebrations partook
Their lives turned around
They gathered with laughter
Once upon a time
And they lived happy ever after
Once upon a time
And they lived happy ever after

Once upon a time
And they lived happy ever after
