Lyrics 'Alec Benjamin - Paper Crown'
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 kingdoms 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 you
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
She's 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 you
When you build your walls
Too high
And there's no one to love you
When you build your walls too
High
There's no one
Who is strong enough
To save your love
There's no fairytale
There's no fairytale
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 you
When you build your walls
Too high
And there's no one to love you
When you trap yourself inside
