Alesana - Better Luck Next Time, Prince Charming

Shadows dance around me as I race alone,
I will never rest until she's in my arms.
So close and yet so far away,
a simple kiss to bring her back, to make this story end.

Not all knights in shining armor
can make your dreams come true.
He's not quite as charming as he may seem.
Come and claim your queen,
come and claim your queen,
come and claim your queen.

Come and claim your queen,
come and claim your queen,
come and claim your queen. The wild beasts are ravenous, they will soon devour you.
Dark howls echo bitter cries, but they fall upon deaf ears.

Not all knights in shining armor
can make your dreams come true
He's not quite as charming as he may seem.
Come and claim your queen.

You're pathetic! What good do you do?
She had faith in me, I was her only escape.
A most deep and subtle poison welcomes
her unblinking eyes to eternal sleep.
If I had shown, she would be mine.
Who is the fairest of all?
Tell me again, tell me again, you know it's me!
A simple kiss to bring her back, to make this story end.

Not all knights in shining armor
can make your dreams come true.
He's not quite as charming as he may seem.
We'll make all your dreams come true,
we'll make all your dreams come true.
Come and claim your queen.
