Castles Crumbling Song lyrics :

Once, I had an empire in a golden age I was held up so high, I used to be great They used to cheer when they saw my face Now, I fear I have fallen from grace And I feel like my castle’s crumbling down And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground And you don’t want to know me I will just let you down You don’t wanna know me now.

 

Castles Crumbling Song lyrics :

 

Once, I had an empire in a golden age
I was held up so high, I used to be great
They used to cheer when they saw my face
Now, I fear I have fallen from grace
And I feel like my castle’s crumbling down
And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground
And you don’t want to know me
I will just let you down

You don’t wanna know me now
Once, I was the great hope for a dynasty
Crowds would hang on my words, and they trusted me
Their faith was strong, but I pushed it too far
I held that grudge ’til it tore me apart
Power went to my head, and I couldn’t stop
Ones I loved tried to help, so I ran them off
And here I sit alone, behind walls of regret
Falling down like promises that I never kept
And I feel like my castle’s crumbling down

And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground
And you don’t want to know me
I will just let you down
You don’t wanna know me now (now)
My foes and friends watch my reign end
I don’t know how it could’ve ended this way
Smoke billows from my ships in the harbor
People look at me like I’m a monster
Now they’re screaming at the palace

front gates, used to chant my name
Now they’re screaming that they hate me
Never wanted you to hate me
My castle’s crumbling down
And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground
And you don’t want to know me
I will just let you down (just let you down)
My castle’s crumbling down
You don’t wanna know me now

And she would enter with the most amazing hooks.” Swift became Sony/ATV Tree Music Publishing’s youngest artist signee, but At the age of 14, he quit RCA Records, then owned by BMG, accusing the label of being careless and of “cut[ting] other people’s stuff.”

In 2005, while attending an industry presentation at Nashville’s Bluebird Cafe, DreamWorks Records executive Scott Borchetta became interested in Swift. At the time, Borchetta was preparing to launch Big Machine Records, an independent record label. 2004 was when she had first encountered Borchetta.
