Whimsical Wednesday: Castle Down

Image from http://jalokin.deviantart.com
This weeks song is pretty depressing, but admittedly, this was how I was feeling during the prior half of this week. Things are slowly being patched up, gently, lovingly, and I am therefore trying to calm myself and piece back together the fragments of my castle that were torn down between the long-lasting was between my Prince's army and my own. For those of you knowing about our little scuffle, no, we have not yet returned to our relationship, but we will start to date again soon. Also, unrelated to this post, but, I have been re-reading many of Princess Skye's old articles. In case you don't know, Miss Skye is my hero. She is the one I look up to more than anyone else, save possibly my father. She honestly saved me from myself, albeit unknowingly, and she is who convinced me that any girl can be a princess. I'm probably going to have many new articles in list form- which is nice because those are my favorite types of posts, personally! I love lists.

So, back onto topic, without further adiu: "Castle Down" by Emilie Autumn! This is the first song that I've covered in English for this blog, teehee. <3

"You can see that I swim
Through the sea of painful
You have watched as I pull
Myself from the floor
And you were there when I
Built my tower like pebbles in the rain
Trying to balance all that I had left
With what I didn't have anymore

And would you tear my castle down

Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose

You seem so devoted

Your love is unconditional
You were self-promoted
I never asked you
You were my everything
My apparitional faith
Where are you when I am screaming to my God
What am I coming to

And would you tear my castle down

Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose

If I had another place to go

Would you break me, is it that you know
I have no choice but to rebuild again
I'm tied so hard I can't remember when
I last walked free upon these feet of mine
But I'll draw the line
There will come a time
When I am stronger
Your words won't hurt any longer

And would you tear my castle down

Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose

And would you tear my castle down

Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there is nothing nothing left
'Til there is nothing nothing left
'Til there is nothing left
And would you tear my castle down...
Would you tear my castle down...
Would you tear my castle down...?"

  1. Has anyone ever told you that you suck at singing? I suppose not. Stop. Now. Or at least stop doing that "Kawaii-desu" voice. And it would be hard to have a week that was worse than yours? What about the people out there that are starving, the ones that are sick, the ones that are dealing with death? Is your week still that bad? Really? If you think the things that happen to you are bad, look around you. Look at what is happening to other people. Is it really that difficult? If you were a true "Princess" you would realize that your life isn't that bad, and help others; it seems like you just sulk in your own misery! How would you like it if you were dying from starvation, hunger, your family was dying? Would this week really seem that "bad" compared to others?
