Fantasy Ecstasy

I grew up in a world of fantasy
Of kings and princes, goblins and gnomes
Fairies and elves, ogres and trolls
My parents gave me everything they could
Till at eighteen I on my own feet stood

But the real world was like a nightmare I woke up to
Tearing to pieces my inner delicate world
To keep my balance I turned to ecstasy
For the pain to dull and from a cruel world run
 I now live in a rehab waiting for some fairy to set me free
