Castles

Change like the wind When the tides shifts your smile And waves come crashing in Isn't it obvious You and I are dancing round A pyre made from Memories of Who we were Now we watch it burn The smoke it rises ever high Signaling to every sky the cost Of sacrifice But everything will change like the wind When the tide shifts your smile And waves come crashing in And as we fall upon these shores Forgetting countless more Will the castles we build here Last 'til the end Will they last Will they fade Grains of sand Wash away In the end We all wash away But everything will change like the tide When the moon reflects your eyes And winter breathes again And as we fall upon these shores Forgetting countless more Will the castles we build here Last 'til the end Will they last Will they fade Grains of sand Wash away In the end We all wash away But brother you and I still stand The only way to move forward Is to know That it's time To let them go To set them free To set them free All we've wrought To these shores Is misery And for a time We must let them be So they may wash away like you and me
