Lyrics Castles in the Sand - New Fiction

Castles in the Sand

Everything feels so pointless
Like we’re building castles in the sand
I think we all lie to ourselves
Have we forgotten when the tide rolls in
And it’s killing me inside
I’m haunted by the ghost inside my head
They tell me to believe it’s all worth something
'Cause life feels meaningless
Don’t act like it doesn’t matter
Acting like I’m numb, it’s just not enough
I’m kept awake by the ghost inside my head
If I were you, I’d forget me and save yourself
We’re building castles
We’re building castles in the sand
It all just goes in circles
Like we’re drawing pictures in the dust
And even though it feels permanent
We walked away when the wind picks up
It’s eating me alive
I’m taunted by the vultures overhead
Is it really over when it ends?
It just feels so meaningless
Maybe I’m wrong, maybe it’s not for nothing
Maybe I looked too hard
Maybe I should have a dream and ride it to the end
Maybe then I’ll find what I’m looking for
Maybe then I’ll understand
Don’t act like it doesn’t matter
Acting like I’m numb, it’s just not enough
I’m kept awake by the ghost inside my head
If I were you, I’d forget me and save yourself
We’re building castles
We’re building castles in the sand
Not sure, not sure of what I’m doing here
What turns, what turns will I ever get?
Cut me, my passion’s my path when it fades
I was dreaming of it
Maybe then I’ll find what I’m looking
Maybe then I’ll understand
Don’t act like it doesn’t matter
Acting like I’m numb, it’s just not enough
I’m kept awake by the ghost inside my head
If I were you, I’d forget me and save yourself
We’re building castles
We’re building castles in the sand
