Sandcastles - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

This concrete city doesn't feel like home

How come I'm cold right beside you

I know I need a tragedy to find the right words

But I'm not sure if they still have any value

Hold your hands together to keep them warm

Cause I won't do it anymore, I've lost myself under your waves

While I was building my sandcastles, thinking I had a choice

You knew there's only emptiness

Ahead

So tell me will I ever change

Tell me will I ever learn

The ghost of you is chasing me

Down the abyss I was thrown in

Again, I've pushed myself off the edge

So will I ever learn

And will I ever change

I’ve built a yellow-brick road

Now I stay on the side of it

The time has come to stop lying to myself

You’ve built a yellow-brick road

Just to watch me trip over it

And now it seems so unreal

Now when it's over, I realize how hollow I really am

It took me too much time to confess

While I was building my sandcastles, thinking I had a choice

You knew there's only emptiness

Ahead

There's only emptiness ahead

Again I've pushed myself off the edge

And again I've pushed myself of the edge
