  1. Sick of all these people talking, sick of all this noise

  2. Tired of all these cameras flashing, sick of being poised

  3. Now my neck is open wide

  4. Begging for a fist around it

  5. Already choking on my pride

  6. So there's no use crying about it

  7. I'm headed straight for the castle

  8. They wanna make me their queen

  9. And there's an old man sitting on the throne

  10. That's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean

  11. I'm headed straight for the castle

  12. They've got the kingdom locked up

  13. And there's an old man sitting on the throne

  14. That's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut

  15. Straight for the castle

  16. All of these minutes passing, sick of feeling used

  17. If you wanna break these walls down

  18. You're gonna get bruised

  19. Now my neck is open wide

  20. Begging for a fist around it

  21. Already choking on my pride

  22. So there's no use crying about it

  23. Crying about it

  24. Cr-cr-crying about it

  25. Cr-cr-crying about it

  26. 'Bout it, 'bout it, 'bout it

  27. I'm headed straight for the castle

  28. They wanna make me their queen

  29. And there's an old man sitting on the throne

  30. That's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean

  31. I'm headed straight for the castle

  32. They've got the kingdom locked up

  33. And there's an old man sitting on the throne

  34. That's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut

  35. Straight for the castle

  36. There's no use crying about it

  37. There's no use crying about it

  38. There's no use crying about it

  39. There's no use crying about it...

  40. I'm headed straight for the castle

  41. They wanna make me their queen

  42. And there's an old man sitting on the throne

  43. That's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean

  44. I'm headed straight for the castle

  45. They've got the kingdom locked up

  46. And there's an old man sitting on the throne

  47. That's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut

  48. Straight for the castle

  49. They wanna make me their queen

  50. And there's an old man sitting on the throne

  51. That's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean

  52. I'm headed straight for the castle

  53. They've got the kingdom locked up

  54. And there's an old man sitting on the throne

  55. That's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut

  56. Straight for the castle

Castle

Sick of all these people talking, sick of all this noise

Tired of all these cameras flashing, sick of being poised

Now my neck is open wide

Begging for a fist around it

Already choking on my pride

So there's no use crying about it

I'm headed straight for the castle

They wanna make me their queen

And there's an old man sitting on the throne

That's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean

I'm headed straight for the castle

They've got the kingdom locked up

And there's an old man sitting on the throne

That's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut

Straight for the castle

All of these minutes passing, sick of feeling used

If you wanna break these walls down

You're gonna get bruised

Now my neck is open wide

Begging for a fist around it

Already choking on my pride

So there's no use crying about it

Crying about it

Cr-cr-crying about it

Cr-cr-crying about it

'Bout it, 'bout it, 'bout it

I'm headed straight for the castle

They wanna make me their queen

And there's an old man sitting on the throne

That's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean

I'm headed straight for the castle

They've got the kingdom locked up

And there's an old man sitting on the throne

That's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut

Straight for the castle

There's no use crying about it

There's no use crying about it

There's no use crying about it

There's no use crying about it...

I'm headed straight for the castle

They wanna make me their queen

And there's an old man sitting on the throne

That's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean

I'm headed straight for the castle

They've got the kingdom locked up

And there's an old man sitting on the throne

That's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut

Straight for the castle

They wanna make me their queen

And there's an old man sitting on the throne

That's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean

I'm headed straight for the castle

They've got the kingdom locked up

And there's an old man sitting on the throne

That's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut

Straight for the castle

Castle
