Once I had an empire i
n a golden age
I was held up so high
I used to be great
They used to cheer
when they saw my face
Now I fear I have
fallen from grace
And I feel like my
castles crumbling down
And I watch all my
bridges burn to the
ground
And you dont want to
know me I will just let you down
You dont wanna know
me now
Once I was the great
hope for a dynasty
Crowds would hang
on my words and they
trusted me
Their faith was strong
but I pushed it too far
I held that grudge
til it tore me apart
Power went to my
head and I couldn't stop
Ones I loved tried to
help so I ran them off
And here I sit alone
behind walls of regret
Falling down like promise
s that I never kept
And I feel like my castles
crumbling down
And I watch all my
bridges burn to the ground
And you dont want to
know me I will just
let you down
You dont wanna know
me now
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh
Ah ah
Ooh
Ah ah
Ooh
My foes and friends watch
my reign end
I dont know how it
couldve ended this way
Smoke billows from my
ships in the harbor
People look at me like
Im a monster
Now they're screaming
at the palace front gates
Used to chant my name
Now theyre screaming
that they hate me
Never wanted you
to hate me
My castles crumbling down
And I watch all my
bridges burn to the ground
And you dont wan
t to know me
I will just let you down
My castles crumbling down
You dont wanna know me now
