Castle Made of Sand (Synthwave Mix)

My self-worth had been crumbling, betrayed from day one
Put faith in people, but they only seem to want to run
Family and friends alike, they just watched me come undone!
This once sturdy stronghold was by the enemy overrun

I'm weak, exposed, and forgotten
Can't find strength on my own!

Then you happened upon me, in this soul's desert land
Brushed the grains from my pores, took my crumbling hand
You saw a beauty in me, in this castle made of sand!

All I saw was an ugly frame of bricks
Doomed to collapse, that was my only fix!
But you stacked them back up, piece by piece
Restored my glory, gave me a new lease!

You lit a fire in my hearth, and you lit love in my heart!
A sleeping beauty in the light, in your warmth, I found my might!

Then you happened upon me, in this soul's desert land
Brushed the grains from my pores, took my crumbling hand
You saw a beauty in me, in this castle made of sand

I thought I heard you whisper
Stay in my warmth forever, sweet lad
I will protect you from all that is bad!

Then you happened upon me, in this soul's desert land
Brushed the grains from my pores, took my crumbling hand
You saw a beauty in me, in this castle made of sand!

Oh, your image makes me whole again!
In your love, I've found my castle in the sand, oh yes!

Well, you happened upon me, in this soul's desert land
Brushed the grains from my pores, took my crumbling hand
You saw a beauty in me!
