lyrics

In heat the city sleeps
And dreams the night away
Monochromatic shades
Of lives in disarray

A parable for truth
In search of lost control
Distorted, concrete haze
These stones remember all

So in my blessed ignorance
I painted cities grey
I saw you in strange skyline
A thousand miles away

Like albatross in heaven
Like writs upon the sand
My faulty declaration – I’ll see you
I’ll see you in the end

So many things undone
And too few left unsaid
As city lights subside
Its dreams will speed ahead

Forever a step behind
Not meant to beat the odds
But you will never burn
My castles in the clouds

This claustrophobic senseless bliss
Sealed by the fading hands
As thoughts of broken memories
And thoughts are set ablaze

Like thorn inside the crown
Like poet’s disarray
I see the skylines burn
A thousand miles, ten thousand miles away

And as I ride the earth below
Pretending not to care
I saw the cities burn
And wondered if you were there

I saw the past left out
And rotting in the streets
A thousand years from now
A story incomplete

The haunting of all senses speaks
In twisting serpent’s tongue
A thousand different skylines
With memories to burn

Like shards of alabaster
Like a lonely final stand
Uncertain silhouette – I’ll be there
I’ll be there at the end

Can you see them burning
My castles in the clouds?
Can you see them burning
My castles in the clouds?
