People come to my golden castle
Unaware it stands on pillars of salt and sand
People come to my castle
And expect a throne of diamond
And bow before it
Unaware it was built on the bones of demons

People come seeking guidance
And leave with a happy soul and cookies
People come to give gifts
Oblivious that I'd never receive them
People come to hurt and hinder
Ignorant of the life they'd spend in jail

People come with the sole purpose of loving
Yet those are the people who leave so fast
People come with offers of friendship
Yet those are the ones that are unforgettable
But when people come to stay
Is when they'll finally see who I am
