I am told I am too fanciful
Building crystal castles in the air
'Wait till they melt' the voices say
Dreaming is for fools
When the ice starts to melt
When faith ceases to be, the crystals start to fall away
As the castle crumbles, it's crystallite cuts into flesh
'Wake up! Wake up! Stop day dreaming! '
It is not the lights, it certainly isn't
Not my name in lights
I just want to make my dreams come true
Crystal castles you call them
But this is my life
I am no fool, for thinking differently am I?
Crystal is beautiful
Perspective differs
The past has a way of suffocating the present and destroying the
future unseen
Faith is rejected
Substituted with fear and insecurity
Crystal castles I build
My heart encased in ice
Lest it be broken
Lest it be my downfall
My ears are perked up
I will hear you always
You are an integral part of who I am
The crystal is melting
The rain is falling
My dreams sometimes break my heart
When thorns graze my heart, and I crush my foot against the stones
But my dream holds true
Faith my eternal friend.
