Sandcastles

This is a song for the broken, the defeated, the unspoken.
For the artist on the wire,
For the dreamer, the inspired.
Are we living or dying?
For the small and untying
Watch the hours fade before us as we count into the What have we done

I've been holding on,
some pieces of your love for far too long
Waste another minute of your time
I'll make it up to you with every rhyme
Have you hanging on my every word
A melody we wish we never heard
The harmony we had is so far gone
I swear I'll never sing or speak to you again

As the music comes to life
And we watch the city lights
The dreamers' see a fire in his eyes
She's held the key,
But he's got a plan
She's still in love, but can't understand
Desperate but impossibly inclined
What have they done

I've been holding on,
some pieces of your love for far too long
Waste another minute of your time
I'll make it up to you with every rhyme
Have you hanging on my every word
A melody we wish we never heard
The harmony we had is so far gone
I swear I'll never sing or speak to you again

So just fly to me
And say that you know that we'll always be fine
Leave these pages filled with love notes
And without a reason why
So just fly to me
And say you'll stay here right where you stand
Leave me desperate and defeated
Building castles in the sand
What have we done
What have they done

I've been holding on,
some pieces of your love for far too long
Waste another minute of your time
I'll make it up to you with every rhyme
Have you hanging on my every word
A melody we wish we never heard
The harmony we had is so far gone
I swear I'll never sing or speak to you again

Just fly to me
And say you know that we'll always be fine
Leave these pages filled with love notes
I swear I'll never sing or speak to you again
