Lyrics for Crumbling Castle (Live At Red Rocks '22)
Meet me glassy-eyed, blind, and divine Hold down the fort on the coastline The castle is a pimple on the face of our orb A humble spot for clues to drop if you eavesdrop Yep I see through the bricks, to the sea, crumbling castle Water's rising up, thick and green, crumbling castle Inching closer each century, crumbling castle Are we safe in our citadel? Look upon on our condition, crumbling castle You would not believe where I'm from, crumbling castle Yep Woo Yeah We wait for the death, does not come, crumbling castle Dug all the holes in God's Acre, crumbling castle We have even said our last rites, crumbling castle Are we safe in our holding cell? Look upon our condition, crumbling castle We head to our extinction, crumbling castle Woo! Yep The sounds of the constant lightning Would be enough to drop out The thought of the end of the world If it weren't for our tinnitus from the bomb Woo! Yep In the wind death does not come I'm brittle as an aged human being Where my walls are safe from wild weather The filth forms into great nastiness, woo! Polygondwanaland I don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle I don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle Woo! I don't want to fall into dust I don't want nothing but to live on The ache inside my keep spurs me on I don't want to be invisible Polygondwanaland I don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle I don't want to be a crumbling, crumbling, crumbling castle On this very day, in one thousand years The earth will be relative to the sun and the moon And a new world will be created I know because it is written here Turn it up, Sammy! I see through the bricks to the sea, crumbling castle Inching closer each century, crumbling castle Water's rising up, thick and green, crumbling castle Are we safe in our holding cell? Woo! Look upon our condition, crumbling castle You would not believe where I'm from, crumbling castle Okay
