Castles

When the morning comes and sunlight hits my face
It's colder now without you next to me
Why do I wish you'd stay?
Why am I still awake?
When I'm the one that let you walk away

And I don't know why I'm still holding on
And time is moving slower now you're gone
Until we wash away like castles by the sea
And I keep making all the same mistakes

(Tell me how)
How'd we break down like a house of cards?
Feel the wind blow then we fall apart
Burn it to the ground, but you left a scar
Why'd we ever start

Tell me ooh
Tell me ooh

If darkness falls and we don't meet again
And all that's left are castles made of sand
What am I waiting for?
How do I fix what's wrong?
When I can feel you slipping through my hands

No I can't get your face out of my head
And everything is backwards since you left
Until we wash away like castles by the sea
And I keep making all the same mistakes

You can't tell me how
How'd we break down like a house of cards?
Feel the wind blow then we fall apart
Burn it to the ground, but you left a scar
If it's how we end, how'd we ever start?

Trying to get away from the memory
How could I forget what you did to me?
Why'd you ever come if you're gonna leave?
Why'd we ever start?

Tell me ooh
Tell me ooh
(until we wash away)
Tell me ooh
