Castles

When I was young, I ran to you down marble stairs

I watched the light dance in your eyes from chandeliers

The fairy tale I dreamed about had become real

But all at once the end of everything came far too near

But the ruins of the castle show the empty halls inside

I'd give up my kingdom if it meant I could walk away

Cause you never wanted me, you wanted the grand display

We have lost everything that should've been just like heaven

And you have made me your enemy once again

But the ruins of the castle show the empty halls inside

Now there's nothing left of us but food for the fire

Tear it all down and light the pyres

Let them burn above it all

Telling the world that we surrendered

This love's not worth the battle

But the ruins of the castle show the empty halls inside

Now there's nothing left of us but food for the fire
