An old fairy tale told me A simple heart will be priced again A toad will be our king And ugly oak is our hero's plan Shake your fist at the sky A white date out of line Old fashions and small fry All promises broken Feed your people or lose your throne And forfeit your whole kingdom Soon I'll lose it and still live in it alone You were a golden child But the gentle and the mild Inherit the earth while Your princess crown Cracks and falls down Your castle hollowed and cold You've wandered so far From the person you are Let go, brother, let go Because now we are alone Soon someone will play the spell on you The future's your sorcery Every trick they know You will lie in a deep sleep That's when your princess crown Cracks and falls down Your castle hollowed and cold You've wandered so far From the person you are Let go, brother, let go Because now we are alone Let go, brother, let go Because now we are alone *
