KN3W - SANDCASTLES Lyrics

You're livin' on borrowed time Tryna find solace in the fact that Tomorrow ain't promised, no
Tomorrow ain't promised, nah You're livin' on borrowed time
Tryna find solace in the fact that Tomorrow ain't promised, no
Tomorrow ain't promised, nah

Sky child perched upon a pile of pain Became the kind of person who would curb
His wild urges and refrain from lashing out Prefers verbalizing hurt inside him
Over works of art to keep his smirk from crashing down
And had this way of turning music that he made Into a blade he used to drain his heart of sadness

And as this wave start to splash across the canvas
Phrases would raise up like spines off the saguaro The sorrow and the blackness in the staring back
Of that starlit skull beneath the cactus Track so honest and clear
Reminds him of the times he went through hell and back and didn't die

Conquered fears exploring colder eyes upon the mirror
I'm gone, I ain't here Singing treasure every moment
It's going to be over before you know it, cheers
The clouds drift past proud cliffs of the red clay

Every line translate, this what the dead say
You're livin' on borrowed time Tryna find solace in the fact that
Tomorrow ain't promised, no Tomorrow ain't promised, nah
You're livin' on borrowed time Tryna find solace in the fact that

Tomorrow ain't promised, no Tomorrow ain't promised, nah
When every facet of your transit is a gambit
You don't ask permission to fit him for a f*cking casket
You tryna feed the maggots or make a jacket
"Put the f*cking lotion in the basket"

What's the plan then? Tossing bottom feeders back
Or "just the facts ma'am"
Either way, it's a dragnet
Disclaimer, I was raised on sliced to death
Favor temple revival through vengeance for our slain abbot

In bladed statements, every fact a thankful act of war
When aimed at jelly purveyors of your tranquil shore
Every slash in half just multiplies their force
So every angle's wave laid is nature taking its course

Castles made of sand, pillars made of quartz
Live from out the trenches, all tentacles, no remorse
Thwarting cold corpse, from the first line recorded
To the end of time, I'm warping back and forth

You're livin' on borrowed time Tryna find solace in the fact that
Tomorrow ain't promised, no Tomorrow ain't promised, nah
You're livin' on borrowed time Tryna find solace in the fact that
Tomorrow ain't promised, no Tomorrow ain't promised, nah

Nah
