Lyrics
Wood Castles Watching the children play in the sand on a blue sky day. They're building up towers to watch 'em fall down, and flooding their cities, and watching the wood people drown. They're building wood castlesĀ and playing at war, and little wood people fall under the sword. Watching the swing set there, as it cuts through the crisp clean air. There is a girl with a red paper moon in her hair. She kisses the air as she leaps from her swing, and the boys simply stare. Wood people slam doors as the rain pounds the shore. Wood castles tremble and bridges crumble. A newspaper blows in the wind. A little boy slips and they cringe. The parents are watching and smiling at them. Admire their innocence. The people are passing and waving at them over a chain link fence. Wood people slam doors in their wooden worlds. Wood castles tremble while children smile.
