Cities Built On Sand

[Intro]
The oh-so-familiar episode of induction
(How could this be proper?)
Of what he thinks is right
She could be the one (She could be the one)
To make this story meet its end
Throw away the masquerade

[Verse 1]
Okay, okay
Let's not start a dispute
You suppose a light solution
Just a simple explanation to this
And he, a man, would love
He would love to fill your mind with his

[Refrain]
And don't stop believing now
And don't stop moving now
And don't be afraid to love for the way he makes you feel

[Chorus]
I'll just inter my feeling
No, just stop this right now
It is not what makes you proud and it is far from what is real

[Post-Chorus]
(Dry your eyes)
Your opinion has always just been
(This is not a time for promises)
Not much more than amusement to him
Throw away the masquerade
(And don't stop fighting 'til they know you)

[Verse 2]
Go ahead and act as expected
An accurate presumption I had in mind
What'd you feel, what'd you feel?
Tell me, how could this be proper?
This is the same mishap stuck on repeat
It's going over and over with consistency
It's the same mistake you made many times before
You are losing miserably

[Refrain]
And don't stop believing now
And don't stop moving now
And don't be afraid to love for the way he makes you feel

[Chorus]
I'll just inter my feeling
No, just stop this right now
It is not what makes you proud and it is far from what is real

[Post-Chorus]
(Dry your eyes)
Your opinion has always just been
(This is not a time for promises)
Not much more than amusement to him
Throw away the masquerade
(And don't stop fighting 'til they know you)

[Bridge]
Now you're sitting at your candle-lit table
Red dress and glass case, you're on display
Now your customary conversation's right on track
Are you nervous? Are you nervous?
Your lips are quivering with fear of saying the
Of saying the wrong thing
Now you're sitting at your candle-lit table
Red dress and glass case, you're on display

[Breakdown]
Please forget his name
His example of fear in men
We can see you now
We can see your face in broken glass

[Outro]
This is haunting me, keeping me from sleep
This is haunting me, keeping me from sleep
This is haunting me, keeping me from sleep
This is haunting me, keeping me from sleep
(Won't he listen to the voices calling his name)
This is haunting me, keeping me from sleep
This is haunting me, keeping me from sleep
(Don't stop believing now)
This is haunting me, keeping me from sleep
(Don't stop moving now)
This is haunting me, keeping me from sleep
(Don't stop believing now)
This is haunting me, keeping me from sleep
(Don't stop moving now)
This is haunting me, keeping me from sleep
