Sand Castle

I'm driving late again, like a deer in a gaslight Ocean breezes by and tells me it's all right All the castles in the universe are there Across the amazons and moats to anywhere Ol four syllables make it seem like a fairytale Sail across the world on a boat inside a whale I'm a skeleton with a case of nostalgia Badly rotten root in a cactus dahlia Foam across the mountaintops in the sand Lines across the highway palm in my hand What can you expect At seventeen from an old man Except one glimpse of freedom From a hollow land It's a Christmas caldera Something that was marvelous Dust that's white and grey with rust Trailing with a wanderlust The people we put on the moon Flag a castle on its 1st commune But they're gone away It's all just children's play It's a Christmas caldera Something that was marvelous Dust that's white and grey with rust Trailing with a wanderlust Goodbye tomorrow! These sand castles of the sky Crashing by the time I'm sorry to you all You lovers and dreamers Reality came about To fool us nonbelievers I felt like a king Inside the womb I thought I'd find my home on the moon Till I lost it all inside Grown up's can't be kids Baby clothes will never fit Goodbye tomorrow!
