When she was younger, she would pretend

That her bedroom was a castle, she was fairestinthe land

And shegot older, and it all changed

Therewas no time for make believe and all the magicslippedaway

Untilthe light inher eyes itwas all but gone

'Cause all the dreams that she had turned out to be wrong

So keep your head up princess 'fore your crown falls

Know these voices in your head will be your downfall

I know it gets so hard but you don't got far to go

Yeah, keep your head up princess, it's a long road

And the path leads right to where they won't go

I know it hurts right now but I know you'll make it home

So keep your head up

Yeah, keep your head up

And now she's grown up, works at a bar

She traded make shift gowns for serving round from sunrise 'til it's dark

And all her friends got, someone to hold

And she's got no one else, still not prepared to make it on her own

And now the light in her eyes it's now all but gone

'Cause all the dreams that she had turned out to be wrong

So keep your head up princess 'fore your crown falls

Know these voices in your head will be your downfall

I know it gets so hard but you don't got far to go

Yeah, keep your head up princess, it's a long road

And the path leads right to where they won't go

I know it hurts right now but I know you'll make it home

So keep your head up

Yeah, keep your head up

One day you'll find your way back to the start

One day you'll live in your dreams

One day you'll wake up and girl you'll be a queen

So keep your head up princess 'fore your crown falls

Know these voices in your head will be your downfall

I know it gets so hard but you don't got far to go

Yeah, keep your head up princess, it's a long road

And the path leads right to where they won't go

I know it hurts right now but I know you'll make it home

So keep your head up

Yeah, keep your head u
