It was so, so hollow
And it left me feeling just the same
Though I played it cool,
I'm surprised by the pain
It was meant to fade
I won't complain
I'm okay
It was meant to fade
Just borrowed time
Bound to slip away
We danced on our walls
Blind to what was written there
I played a game until it played me
The game is over, the lesson's clear
It was meant to fade
I won't complain
I'm okay
It was meant to fade
Just borrowed time
Bound to slip away
The sand of this castle
Just ran through my hands
This castle of sand
Left to the sea and wind
It was meant to fade
I won't complain
I'm okay
It was meant to fade
Just borrowed time
Bound to slip away
