Ozymandias
We built houses out of sand
Castles big and bold and grand
But blew them away
When morning came
You built
Stations and railways and trains
I longed
For far-off adventures and planes
Yet we stand by the coast
Packed a suitcase for a ghost
We can take off anytime you like
I buried secrets in the dunes
You sang a love song for the moon
Yet it sounded the same
When morning came
You built
Stations and railways and trains
We hid
Like matches in boxes and caves
Full of wine and yellow light
Passing ships in the night
I could take off anything you like
See you now, by the coast
The one who knows me most
I could come back anytime you like
Castles big and bold and grand
But blew them away
When morning came
You built
Stations and railways and trains
I longed
For far-off adventures and planes
Yet we stand by the coast
Packed a suitcase for a ghost
We can take off anytime you like
I buried secrets in the dunes
You sang a love song for the moon
Yet it sounded the same
When morning came
You built
Stations and railways and trains
We hid
Like matches in boxes and caves
Full of wine and yellow light
Passing ships in the night
I could take off anything you like
See you now, by the coast
The one who knows me most
I could come back anytime you like
