Fairy Tales and Castles Songtext
von Blyss

He says he looks in the mirror
And he can′t tell anymore
Who he really is and who they believe him to be
And he says he walks in a thin line
Between what is and what could be
He's getting closer To something he can′t understand

Cause there's a crack in his plastic crown
And his throne of ice is melting
He climbed his ladder
And there was nothing there
And now it's a long way down

Cause on and on and on he goes
dancing on the grave
Of what he thought was still alive
On and on and on he goes
Dancing in mansions made of twigs And castles made of sand


He says his head is filled with
Cartoons and fairy tales
And he′s trapped inside a dungeon of dolls With smiles on their faces
He′s built a pretty cage
It shows on a beautiful stage
With candy coated prison bars And chains that look like jewelry

Cause there's a crack in his plastic crown
And his throne of ice is melting
He climbed his ladder
And there was nothing there
And now it′s a long way down

Cause on and on and on he goes
dancing on the grave
Of what he thought was still alive
On and on and on he goes
Dancing in mansions made of twigs And castles made of sand

Cause he lives inside Of fairy tales and castles now
And there's room inside For false expectations and illusions

Cause there′s a crack in his plastic crown
And his throne of ice is melting
He climbed his ladder And there was nothing there
And now it's a long way down
It′s a long way down


(Cause on and on and on he goes
dancing on the grave)
(Of what he thought was still alive) Yeah
(On and on and on he goes)
(Dancing in mansions made of twigs) And castles made of sand
Cause on and on and on he goes
dancing on the grave
Of what he thought was still alive
On and on and on he goes
Dancing in mansions made of twigs And castles made of sand
On and on and on he goes
(Dancing on the grave)
Cause on and on and on he goes (of what he thought was still alive)
Cause on and on and on he goes
(Dancing in mansions made of twigs)
And castles made of sand
