Sandcastle Kingdoms

What can I make and what can I sell?

A timeshare in Heaven that's just out of Hell

Am I a fraud or a genuine scam?

Am I a monster or worse, just a man?

But in the end we're all the same

To the grave we only take our names

And there's an ocean made of dreams

But the current strands you out at sea

I wake up to find

The passing of time

Made my mirror show

Someone I don't know

Now with my own hands

Build castles from sand

But all Kingdoms drown

As tides bring them down

My army has fallen, ambitions have burned

The subjects stay loyal but don't wait their turn

Now blindly they follow their king to the fray

But he has no action and they have no say

But in the end we're bound to change

We're made for more than all of these numbers and names

We could all go down in flames

Or put it out, relinquish these words from my mouth

I wake up to find

The passing of time

Made my mirror show

Someone I don't know

Now with my own hands

Build castles from sand

But all Kingdoms drown

As tides bring them down

My sirens they sing

Laments just for me

I fall to my knees

And beg for release

When my Kingdom comes

My will be undone

My world then decides

Where to hang my hide

In the end we're bound to change

Bound to change

We should all go down in flames

Maybe one day you'll find humanity, until then don't you dare say that we are the same...
