Weather's getting colder
Winter claims the land
It is said the queen is dressed
In the warmest gown in the whole land
They say it is a wonder
Her dress is made of thunder
The wolves who cannot see it
Will, one day, dethrone the queen
The citizens all cower
The beauty of the power
Makes them see a flower bloom
In the winter wonderland
The walls keep getting closer
Breathe fear in your cage
For the queen will hear today
The reason in the rhymes children play
The queen is naked
And no one sees her amber eyes
Now the innocent kneel down
And ask forgiveness for their lies
The court, the meek
Will obey the tyrant queen
Bring us their heads for
This is the day when the wolves die young
They'll never see a new midnight Sun
I'm gonna make sure the prophecy is undone
Find out where those children have run
Mutiny is rising
Against the wall of fear
Mirror, mirror of the fall
Sees her final spiraling downfall
The queen is naked
And no one sees her amber eyes
Now the innocent kneel down
And ask forgiveness for their lies
The court, the meek
Will obey the tyrant queen
This is the day when the wolves die young
They'll never see a new midnight Sun
I'm gonna make sure the prophecy is undone
Find out where those children have run
This is the day when the wolves die young
They'll never see a new midnight Sun
I'm gonna make sure the prophecy is undone
Find out where those children have run
This is the day when the wolves die young
They'll never see a new midnight Sun
I'm gonna make sure the prophecy is undone
Find out where those children have run
Find out where those children have run
Find out where those children have run
