Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sick of all these people talkin', sick of all this noise
Tired of all these cameras flashin', sick of being poised
Now my neck is open wide, beggin' for a fist around it
Already chokin' on my pride, so there's no use cryin' about it
[Chorus]
I'm headed straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne there
Saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
[Chorus]
I'm headed straight for the castle
They've got the kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne there
Saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
Straight for the castle
[Verse 2]
Oh, all of these minutes passin', sick of feelin' used
If you wanna break these walls down, you're gonna get bruised
Now my neck is open wide, beggin' for a fist around it
Already chokin' on my pride, so there's no use cryin' about it
Cryin' about it
Cry-cry-cryin' about it
Cry-cry-cryin' about it, 'bout it, 'bout it, 'bout it
[Chorus]
I'm headed straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne there
Saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
[Chorus]
I'm headed straight for the castle
They've got the kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne there
Saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
Straight for the castle
[Bridge]
There's no use cryin' about it
There's no use cryin' about it
There's no use cryin' about it
There's no use cryin' about it
[Chorus]
I'm headed straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne there
Saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
[Chorus]
I'm headed straight for the castle
They've got the kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne there
Saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
[Outro]
Straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne there
Saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
[Outro]
I'm headed straight for the castle
They've got the kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne there
Saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
Straight for the castle
