Castles Lyrics

Well I've got a secret

Some wicked words I'll whisper to the king

I'll be discreet but I've never known him hear a single thing

In the cafes we can sit and play with pictures of ourselves

It's the best way to slowly turn this heaven into hell

And if you close your eyes

You can listen to my life as it walks on by

As I'm falling in and falling out of love again

Building castles up to tear them down again

Sacrificing myself to the town

Sending in the clowns

To the lost and found

What more did anyone expect?

This endless daylight is the only thing that pulls me out of bed

It's a snakebite; it turns my golden visions into lead

To an uproar, I'll strut and fret my hour upon the stage

To an encore, I'll abandon all I've gathered to the waves

It's a brave new world

Hold it in your hands; don't say a word

Because I'm falling in and falling out of love again

I'm building castles up to tear them down again

I'm digging myself deeper underground

To stand another round

For the lost and found

What more did anyone expect?

And if you see her tell the sun

That she's staring down the barrel of a gun

We're just rabbits on the run

Falling in and falling out of love again

Searching for some signal from above again

Building castles up to tear them down

Falling in and falling out of love again

Building castles up again

Tearing them back down

Well I'm falling in and falling out of love again

Building castles up again

Tearing them back down

Well I'm falling in and falling out of love again

Building castles up again

Tearing them back down

What more did anyone expect?
