A paper crown and a heart made of glass
A tattered gown and a kingdom of ash
She walks alone, she can never look back
The story of a queen whose castle has fallen to the sea
She'll make it out, but she's never the same
She's looking down at the scars that remain
But you hold your ground, when your kingdom's in flames
'Cause it's the story of a queen whose castle has fallen to the sea
Knowing there's no one who will be a king that will come and save his queen

When all she needs, when all she wants, when all she finds
When all she is and ever was is compromised
'Cause there's no one to love her
When you build your walls too high
And there's no one to love you
When you build your walls too high

She's looking out from the war that's inside
And screaming out 'cause no one survived
But when you're all alone, you wait and you hide
'Cause it's the story of a queen whose castle has fallen to the sea
Knowing there's no one who will be a king who will come and save his queen

When all she needs, when all she wants, when all she finds
When all she is and ever was is compromised
'Cause there's no one to love her
When you build your walls too high
And there's no one to love you
When you build your walls too high

And there's no one who is strong enough
To save your love
There's no fairy tale
There's no fairy tale

When all she needs, when all she wants, when all she finds
When all she is and ever was is compromised
'Cause there's no one to love her
When you build your walls too high
And there's no one to love you
When you trap yourself inside
