You built a castle made out of sand. With tools like plastic, you raised your children. I built a castle made out of sand. As I formed a kingdom, you ruined every thing. All those walls I worked so hard for, you trampled to the ground. Those fateful days under the southern sky, I lost my fortress. My tears and my toolbox, I hid them from view. The memories still haunt me, for I was just a child. They’ll never destroy us; Those days will transform us. Prepare for the battle; Blood-red bows and arrows. Our faith will be tested; Was this moment destined? My wings can’t be broken; I will rise again. I’ll fight ‘til my dying breath. You built a castle made out of sand. With tools like plastic, you raised your children. I built a castle made out of sand. As I formed a kingdom, you ruined every thing. All those walls I worked so hard for, you trampled to the ground. I’ve learned to stay far from the sky; I guard my fortress. My tears and my toolbox, I still hide from view. My sacred walls, I won’t let them fall again.
