Castles Made of Sand

Trying to live on shifting sands
Surfing the ground with outstretched hands
Change is hard on all our plans
Even mountains crumble slowly

There on the shoreline's soft decline
Waves of years still crash in my mind
As our footprints fade away

All the things that I've said
All the things that I've done
Will there be anything left of me
And my castles made of sand

Sometimes I feel we live like ants
Going through motions in a trance
Searching for fortune or a bit of romance
Before it all becomes debris

Stuck at red lights killing time
Echoes of warning beginning to chime
One day the clocks will tick without me

All the things that I've said
All the things that I've done
Will there be anything left of me
And my castles made of sand

When I stare up at the night
And see the twinkling from the past
Fragile moments end so fast
So I'll burn, I'll burn out bright

All the things that I've said
All the things that I've done
Will there be anything left of me
And my castles made of sand

All the things that I've said
All the things that I've done
Will there be anything left of me
Will there be anything left of me
Will there be anything left

Slyboots New York, New York

Slyboots' music strives to inspire and mesmerize; they want to be that moment of suspension, that “ah-ha” feeling when you get the funny punch line or see art in action, or just that memorable New York City high.
