Dark-Eyed Prince
Once upon a time in a kingdom ill-defined
A dark-eyed prince sat sideways on his throne
And he cast aside the thoughts of his princess long had lost
Decided he'd live principally alone
And so he built himself a castle made of stumbling blocks and bricks
And he filled the moat with crocodile tears and other tricks
But he forgot to build the doorway,
He forgot to build the gate
And so he had to build a catapult just to knock the wall away
And he'd venture out at night, being jeweled in aridite
And he'd ride from town to town and farm to farm
And he'd laugh at all the sheep, and at the company they'd keep
And he'd burn down all the churches and the barns
Until he'd find a proper damsel and then he'd play the proper prince
And he'd lead her home with apples and a promise on his stick
Until she'd fall upon the pillow, and then he'd fall upon the dawn
And then he'd close his eyes to hers and then just dream that she was gone
And then he swore upon the crown that he'd melt desire down

And he boarded up his windows and his eyes
But he still could hear the sound of the rain upon the route
And he still could feel his face against the sky
And how the birds, and how the bees, they each took turns upon their knees
And how to take me if you dare to, turn to thank you if you plead
And how the nectar in the flowers, how the flowers on the vine
When they turn his blood from fever into honey juice and wine
And he knew that it was true in the crumbs that nature threw
And that 'Ever After' always ends the tale
And that somewhere in disguise there was a girl with lantern eyes
Who could fill the darkest shadows with detail
So he'd build another tower just to tear another down
And he'd lay a trail of candles from his castle into town
But if you go there please be careful,
And if you leave there please be quick
Because he'll rob your eyes of color and your balls to make more bricks
