"Castle" by Canyon City

Lyrics:

You asleep, rear backseat
I can see my breath
I’m waiting on caffeine
Like waiting on a bet

I wish I had a castle
To guard you from all fear
We’d laugh into the echo
A moat to hold the tears

Someday we’ll make it
Some way, I know
‘Til we hold it to the light like a counterfeit bill
We can hide out in a castle all our own

And we’ll throw dinner parties
With midnight moon our guest
Pretend we’re over far away seas
And not his empty rest

And we can walk the garden
If you go hide I’ll seek
Until the morning’s started
And I’ll go make ends meet

Someday we’ll make it
Some way, I know
‘Til we hold it to the light like a counterfeit bill
We can hide out in a castle all our own

If we can’t stay we’ll fake it
If we can’t pay, don’t cry
‘Til they hold me to the light like a counterfeit bill
We can hide out in a castle all night

I wish I had a magic machine
To castles in the sky
To take away from sadness between
The morning and the night
The morning and the night
The morning and the night

Castle

Lyrics:

If I could find an army
To do as I command
If I could paint a picture, love
To help you understand
If I could dig to China
Without making a sound
Then baby I’d be nowhere to be found

If I could kill a giant
With the tiniest of stones
If I could keep a shooting star
From falling alone
If I could kiss the sunrise
Each time around
Then baby I’d be nowhere to be found

And it’s a long time to lie
A child beneath an endless sky
Who can only reach so high
And I love to wonder why
I feel I’m left with only my disguise

If I could find the secret
To how the world began
If I could hold the key of life
In the palm of my hand
If I could take you with me
And slow the turning down
Then maybe we’d be nowhere to be found

And it’s a long time to lie
A child beneath and endless sky
Who can only reach so high
And I love to wonder why
I feel I’m left with only my disguise

And I love to wonder why
I feel I’m left with only my disguise

📝 Lyrics:

These are the glory days
So why are you scared we are young
We are the risks we take
I breathe strong 

Starlings free-form
Over these moors 
Where my heart lies
Cemented in all of time
And all past loves

Over on the hills 
In five years still
All remains here
Untouched by the turns of life
And I get lost in my mine

I'll be still as the wind spills its body
I'm breaking out of the line
I'll be calm as the winter storms surround me
I'm heading out this time

Look into the stars
I've been thinking more
About this whole thing
Through the gaps of a moving train
For who we are

Little do I know
Come come and go
And love
We build up

I'll be still as the wind spills its body
I'm breaking out of the line
I'll be calm as the winter storms surround me
I'm heading out this time

Who plays the fool
When we've failed out last hurdle
Who claims the crown
When we've poisoned the rest of our lands

These are the glory days
So why you scared 
We are the risks we take
I've breathe strong

I'll be still as the wind spills its body 
I'm breaking out of the line
