Lyrics

Sandcastles Sandy castle near the water The still air inside a cave When the wishes that were granted Turn to ashes all the same It's ok, in the end All that was given was well spent Turn to living in the moment As I look towards the sea Where the ocean's but a wave Not a photograph But moving Like a picture's fickle frame Not a painting, more a beauty and a beast Can't foretell, can't foresee What this moment's meant to be What will pass, what will last By the ocean in the sand What's the castle meant to stand And what'll wash away What is it we crave (What is it we crave) In that quiet cave (In that quiet cave) Why fight the change (Why fight the change) Why can't we just accept we cannot stay? Why is the eternal quest To outdo and out-best When in motion with the ocean It's the sands we can not test Ahhh ahhh Why the capture, why the hook? All the moments that it took String of promise Makes a net Why is it I can't forget Swimming hard against the current Makes you only much more strained While the salt in the water open wounds likes to spray What is it we crave (What is it we crave) In that quiet cave? (In that quiet cave) Why fight the change? (Why fight the change) Why can't we just accept we cannot stay? Why is the eternal quest To outdo and out-best When in motion with the ocean It's the sands we can not test Ahh Ahh Ahhh Ahhh When the soul's laid bare (When the soul's laid bare) That's when the truth we share (That's when the truth we share) All I promised I you gave In the caverns of this cave Hollow echoes of false hope Must we lie so we can make Our sandcastles in the sun Just to cope and not to run This mirage is all we know And now it gave away And now it gave away And now it gave away
