Castles in the Sand
Imprints of tiny feet
Lead me to a castle
Where sand and tide forever meet
There he built his home
An intricate assembly
Of fantasy and dirt
Expectations children have
The minute of their birth

Imprints of tiny dreams
Have no lasting value
When the forces of our peers
Wash out all we do
Childhood's work
Flushes away
Water helped to mold it
Now waves pound the bay
Spiraling destruction
Vanishing into the spray
Combination of two elements
That won't last a single day

Castles on Fire
Twelve o'clock and I walk away
I have left the dawn
My voice harsh to battle the impending doom
Imprints of a soldier's feet
Lead me to a meadow
Where fire and dust forever meet
Too light for their own shadow

Searing sun on my back and I don't wanna live
No idea of how to make sense of all those
Clashing perceptions and emotions
Certainly, I know it all
Let's wipe out the existing
Mason us a modern wall
A new and mature building

Boxes
We all stand alone
Back to back
Boxes against boxes
Peace simply means no attack
Smart ones drill a tiny hole
Letting in some air
From a box locked waterproof
We pretend that skies are fair

Castles in the Air
Keep on blowing air into the bubble till it bursts
When its contents vaporizes will you be content
Discovering that you're the last who could have been the first
To keep your castle on the ground where it can firmly, oh so firmly stand?

Ruins
Sun sets
Moon rises
Breathe in
Smell the decay
I heave a sigh
And I'm on my way

A faint and low-pitched voice
Reverberating through every essence
Thickens the air and leaves no choice
But to accept its omnipresence
A somber concept flies
Not deserving of our acquiescence
"Only One holds the castle in the sky"
Convicts us to a state of penance

Balance
When I'm there I'll know
The key to happiness is not to be found
In retrieving what we whish for most
But in learning how to best balance our load

Castle Lords
Finally, now it strikes me hard:
I have left my dawn
When I used to be my universe's basic source
Imprints of religious faith
Suppressed me into the notion
That only God creates at will
My power dissolved in His Ocean

Surfacing from the hypnotic deep sleep
Returning to my gradient course to
Forever effect all our
Perceptions and emotions

Certainly, I know all of the total
Remodel all the existing
Stack up the bricks for a modern world
In affinity, persisting

Castles inside
We keep going the incline - oh oh
Finding castles are inside - oh oh
