Sandcastle

I saw a house on a shore that was standing tall And across the water I heard a call The sound of everything she loved just fell to pieces in the tide Seasons passed and they shook those walls Would her heart last through it all? I waded to my chest, and drowned a little just to watch the fire So can someone tell me Why she looks in the mirror thinking it's her fault When she was the foundation Ohh-ohhh-ohh I say the words but I know she can't hear me talk So I just get frustrated Ohh-ohhh 'Cause I can't watch the sandcastle fall to the ground I saw a light burning out from across the waves Try to fix it but I know that I can't change Life to the way it was before 'Cause I know that she Covers up the scars she's scared to show And watching doesn't help me let it go 'Cause I've been here before but I still don't know Why she looks in the mirror thinking it's her fault When she was the foundation Ohh-ohhh-ohh I say the words but I know she can't hear me talk So I just get frustrated Ohh-ohhh 'Cause I can't watch the sandcastle fall to the ground 'Cause I want to know If it all crashed down tonight Would you run towards the riptide To forget what you can't fight? Oh, I want to know If you couldn't stop the tide Would you call into the distance? Would you hope that I'm alive? Why she looks in the mirror thinking it's her fault When she was the foundation Ohh-ohhh-ohh I say the words but I know she can't hear me talk So I just get frustrated Ohh-ohhh 'Cause I can't watch the sandcastle fall to the ground
