[Verse 1]
She lives in a fairy tale
Somewhere too far for us to find
Forgotten the taste and smell
Of a world that she's left behind
It's all about the exposure
The lens I told her
The angles were all wrong now
She's ripping wings off of butterflies
[Pre-Chorus]
Keep your feet on the ground
When your head's in the clouds
[Chorus]
Well, go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
[Break]
Ba-da-ba, ba-da ba-ba-ba
[Verse 2]
So one day he found her crying
Coiled up on the dirty ground
Her prince finally came to save her
And the rest you can figure out
But it was a trick
And the clock struck twelve
Well, make sure to build your house brick by boring brick
Or the wolf's gonna blow it down
[Pre-Chorus]
Keep your feet on the ground
When your head's in the clouds
[Chorus]
Well, go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Woah
Woah yeah yeah
[Bridge]
Well, you built up a world of magic
Because your real life is tragic
Yeah, you built up a world of magic
[Verse 3]
If it's not real
You can't see it with your eyes
You can't feel it with your heart
And I won't believe it
But if it's true
Then you can see it with your eyes
Oh, even in the dark
And that's where I want to be, yeah
[Chorus]
Go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Hey
[Break]
Ba-da-ba, ba-da ba-ba-da

Ba-da-ba, ba-da ba-ba-da
Ba-da-ba, ba-da ba-ba-da

Forgotten the taste and smell
Of a world that she's left behind

[Pre-Chorus]
Keep your feet on the ground
When your head's in the clouds

And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
