We try to build something up
We try to build something up between ourselves
We try to claim we’re in love and then our loving seems shelved
Everything we have built has been on false foundations
And been washed away
Everything we’ve tried to present was during our battles washed away like sandcastles
We’ve tried to pretend something’s there We’ve tried to pretend something’s there
In this hopeless affair
We can pretend all is well but I think we can tell …
Everything we have built has been on false foundations
And been washed away
Everything we’ve tried to present was during our battles washed away like sandcastles
And we know there is not one grain of true love we have for each other
So why do we go and bring such pain upon one another?
Everything we have built has been on false foundations
And been washed away
Everything we’ve tried to present was during our battles washed away like sandcastles
Everything we have built has been on false foundations
Washed away like sandcastles
