the Castles we
were going to build
how They sparkled
in the noonday sun
of our dreams

the Castles we
were going to build
would have scratched
the skin of heaven
and heaven bleeding
would have washed us
clean

the Castles we
were going to build
would have stoppped
the rain
calmed the seas
held our hands as
we looked over the edge
then given us wings
and whispered
jump

we would have been…
we could have been…

But here we stand
The grass grows tall
And the castles fade
With the sunlight
