The King's Curse

How good is a kingdom
Where I can't share my throne
Where I don't have freedom
To call you my own

How good is a palace
Be wealthy and known
Be Wonderland's Alice
Yet I don't feel home

They make me feel welcome
But that, I'm dismissing
So they question me how come?
I tell them you're missing

So many want power
I just want your beauty
I might be a coward
Because I have a duty

A king that I am
But wasn't born to be
I live by a plan
Invented before me

They look up to the man
Who feels like a boy
Won't ever understand
What a title can destroy

I walk out and wave
Only looking for you
A castle or a cave...
It's the same without us two

Living in darkness
The sun isn't bright enough
I'd give up my highness
To just have your love

I feel sick and I feel cursed
And there's nothing to do
And quite frankly, the worst
Is to have so much love due

I scream, and I run away
But where I should I go?
I ask about you, they say
Sorry sir, we don't know

I know that one day
You'll come back, as you wrote
I'll leave what I may
We'll sail on my boat

I dream of the sky
That will guide us ahead
And the sea, blue and wide
I won't lead, I'll be led

I still dream I live a lie
And you're really not dead
Because to have you and I
Wouldn't care dying instead
