Another Castle Lyrics
I've been through the swamplands
Over mountains, under seas
Searching through the badlands
For the one thing that I need
But every time the drawbridge comes down
The gatekeeper will say with a frown:
Your Princess is in another castle
Sorry for the hassle
Strangely, it's a common mistake
But the thing is
What complicates the Princess
She's always where you look last
So think fast
For everyone's sake
And remember anybody can break
No man's born an island
But I wish that I could learn
I might spend my last lifе
Licking lamplight, getting burned
I curse thе haunted heart in my chest
It pulls me forward every step
Your Princess is in another castle
Sorry for the hassle
Would you just prefer to pretend?
One Princess can't be in every castle
Avoiding poisoned apples
And scrolling from her canopy bed
So restart and forget
Listen, it wasn't what it looked like
I never really felt right
But I tried to make it OK
An apple is just an allegory
The moral of the story
Is you'll reap whatever you sow
So watch your step as you go
