Red Hot Chili Peppers — Castles Made of Sand Live

[Verse 1] Down the street, you can hear her scream, "You're a disgrace!" As she slams the door in his drunken face And now he stands outside All the neighbors start to gossip and drool He cries, "Oh girl, you must be mad What happened to the sweet love you and me had?" Against the door, he leans and starts a scene And his tears fall, burn the garden green [Chorus 1] And so, castles made of sand Fall in the sea, eventually [Verse 2] Was an Indian, brave, too, before he was ten Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends And he built a dream that when he grew up He would be a fearless warrior Indian chief Many moons passed, and the dream grew strong 'Til tomorrow, he would sing his first war song Fought his first battle, but somethin' went wrong Surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night [Chorus 2] And so, castles made of sand Fall in the sea, eventually [Break] Take it, Johnny! [Verse 3] There was a young girl whose heart was a frown She was crippled for life, and she couldn't speak a sound And she wished and prayed she could stop livin', so she decided to die She drew her wheelchair to the edge of the shore To her legs she smiled, "You won't hurt me no more." But then, a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say "Look a golden winged ship is passing my way!" And it really didn't have to stop, it just kept on goin' [Chorus 3] And some castles made of sand Sl-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-lipped in the sea, yeah, eventually
