Castles Lyrics

Some folks survive

Just getting by

And that's a-ok with me

Some people fly

And it's nice to try

But don't try and carry me

I'm doing time

And getting by

But the going's getting me

Hot to the touch

It isn't much

But it's all made straight from me.

I don't wanna serve it to you

Your way

I don't wanna give it up for

Your game

I stand above

The ruins of

Castles built long before me

I'll take a brick

I'll use it quick

But it's my wall, can't you see

We're standing on

The shoulders of

Pioneers who mapped this sea

And sure it's true

What can you do?

But that don't make less of me

I don't wanna serve it to you

Your way

I don't wanna give it up for

Your game

I don't need to think it through in

No way

You could use a second after

Your play

Some folks survive

Just getting by

And that's a-ok with me

Some people fly

And it's nice to try

But don't try and carry me

I'm doing time

And getting by

But the going's getting me

Hot to the touch

It isn't much

But it's all made straight from me.
