Shattered Halos
And shattered halos fall
Across the street of solid gold
I know you longed for a place to call your own
I forget the way I cried
When I heard it call your name
But I hope for laughter that is coming after pain
I'd chase these
Tidal waves
To touch your hand once more
But the current strength
Won't let me leave this shore
And these sandcastles break
Beneath waters I once wore
And these tidal waves
Will carry you further north
So this is how it ends
Selling pieces of your soul
In this garage sale of all the things you owned
Your favorite sweater goes
Bought by someone I don't know
As they strip away
Everything but bones
I'd chase these
Tidal waves
To touch your hand once more
But the current strength
Won't let me leave this shore
And these sandcastles break
Beneath waters I once wore
And these tidal waves
Will carry you further north
And let the angels sing
La-la-la-la-la-la
And let the demons howl
Woah-woah-woah
Another sweater goes
Along with the trophy case
Empire building but who was it really for?
Casket in the ground
And your soul stares from the sky
From this high up's like
Sand castles on the shore
I'd swim through
Tidal waves
To touch your hand once more
But the current strength
Won't let me leave this shore
And these sandcastles break
Beneath waters I once wore
And these tidal waves
Will carry you further north
And let the angels sing
La-la-la-la-la-la
And let the demons howl
Woah-woah-woah
And let the angels sing
La-la-la-la-la-la
And let the demons howl
Woah-woah-woah
Across the street of solid gold
I know you longed for a place to call your own
I forget the way I cried
When I heard it call your name
But I hope for laughter that is coming after pain
I'd chase these
Tidal waves
To touch your hand once more
But the current strength
Won't let me leave this shore
And these sandcastles break
Beneath waters I once wore
And these tidal waves
Will carry you further north
So this is how it ends
Selling pieces of your soul
In this garage sale of all the things you owned
Your favorite sweater goes
Bought by someone I don't know
As they strip away
Everything but bones
I'd chase these
Tidal waves
To touch your hand once more
But the current strength
Won't let me leave this shore
And these sandcastles break
Beneath waters I once wore
And these tidal waves
Will carry you further north
And let the angels sing
La-la-la-la-la-la
And let the demons howl
Woah-woah-woah
Another sweater goes
Along with the trophy case
Empire building but who was it really for?
Casket in the ground
And your soul stares from the sky
From this high up's like
Sand castles on the shore
I'd swim through
Tidal waves
To touch your hand once more
But the current strength
Won't let me leave this shore
And these sandcastles break
Beneath waters I once wore
And these tidal waves
Will carry you further north
And let the angels sing
La-la-la-la-la-la
And let the demons howl
Woah-woah-woah
And let the angels sing
La-la-la-la-la-la
And let the demons howl
Woah-woah-woah
