Glass Castles Lyrics

We built it all with trembling hands

Dreams so fragile, like grains of sand

Every word, a stone we placed

But the cracks grew wide where love erased

The sunlight danced on the fragile walls

While echoes whispered down empty halls

We were kings in a world so small

Ruling a kingdom destined to fall

Glass castles in the sky

Shimmering, but bound to die

We reached so high, but broke so low

In a fragile world, the cracks will show

Glass castles, love's cruel game

Beautiful, but never the same

With every shard, I see the truth

We lost ourselves in chasing youth

Your touch was fire, your words were ice

A fragile balance, we paid the price

The winds of change swept through our halls

Breaking the mirrors, smashing the walls

I tried to hold what I couldn't keep

Watched it shatter beneath my feet

Now the ruins gleam in the pale moonlight

A haunting reminder of love's brief flight

Glass castles in the sky

Shimmering, but bound to die

We reached so high, but broke so low

In a fragile world, the cracks will show

Glass castles, love's cruel game

Beautiful, but never the same

With every shard, I see the truth

We lost ourselves in chasing youth
