An old fairytale told me
The simple heart will be prized again
A toad will be our king
And ugly ogres are heroes

Then you´ll shake
Your fist at the sky
"Oh why did I rely
On fashions and small fry?"

All promises broken
Feed your people or lose your throne
And forfeit your whole kingdom
I´d sooner lose it than still live in it alone

You were our golden child
But the gentle and the mild
Inherit the earth, while

Your prince´s crown
Cracks and falls down
Your castle hollow and cold
You´ve wandered so far
From the person you are
Let go brother, let go
Cos now we all know

Soon, someone will put a spell on you
Perfume, treasure, sorcery, every trick they know

You will lie in a deep sleep
That´s when

Your prince´s crown
Cracks and falls down
Your castle hollow and cold
You´ve wandered so far
From the person you are
Let go brother, let go
Cos now we all know
