The man goes to find out what he is
The madness of the soul in a total bliss
This place we used to live is now a cave
It's where I met my shadows in the darker shades
What happened to the days that were on fire?
My soul is way too dark for my own desire!
Happiness is gone, my thoughts unclear
No one ever wins these kinds of fights
It's hard for me to focus on what's near in life
All I wanted was you to love me
I just needed you to care
Hoped that you would treat me right
When I needed you to be there
But I was building castles in the air!
I'm tryin to see what we were meant to be
Uh, but this is a lost cause, is all I see
Uh, we can never go back, walls are broken
Oh, we're too hopeless, hope when your heart's not open
Anywhere I would've followed you
In time I wish you could see
And realize what you've lost
When you chose her over me
Cause all I wanted was you to love me
I just needed you to care
Hoped that you would treat me right
When I needed you to be there
But I was building castles in the air!
All of me, take all of me
It's all I have left to give
It's all I wanted was you to love me
I just needed you to care
Hoped that you would treat me right
When I needed you to be there
I was building castles in the air!
I was building castles in the air!
