Fairytales And Castles Lyrics

Fairytales And Castles lyrics

He sighs and looks in the mirror
And he can't tell anymore
Who he really
is and who they believe him to be
And he sighs and walks a thin
line
Between what is and what could be
He's getting closer
To
something he can't understand


Cause there's a crack in his plastic
crown
And his throne of ice is melting
He climbed his ladder
And there
was nothing there
And now it's a long way down


Cause on and on and
on he goes
Dancing on the grave
Of what he thought was still alive
On
and on and on he goes
Dancing in mansions made of twigs
And castles made
of sand


He sighs and his head is filled with
Cartoons and fairy
tales
And he's trapped inside a dungeon of dolls
With smiles on their
faces
He's built a pretty cage
His shows on a beautiful stage
With
candy coated prison bars
And chains that look like jewelry


Cause
there's a crack in his plastic crown
And his throne of ice is melting
He
climbed his ladder
And there was nothing there
And now it's a long way
down


Cause he lives inside
Of fairy tales and castle lands
And
there's room inside
For false expectations and illusions
