Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Flickering neon paints the rain-soaked street
Same tired diner, booth tucked in the backseat
Coffee black as the ink on your worn-out sleeve
You tell me 'bout the muse that finally took leave
(Pre-Chorus)
Another restless dreamer, another heart on fire
Burning for the truth, caught in a liar's choir
Strumming your six-string, words a desperate plea
Is this the cost of chasing immortality?
(Chorus)
We built our castles out of shattered dreams
Kings and queens of heartache, a cathartic scream
Lost loves and faded glories, fuel for the midnight oil
Bleeding onto the page, stories that never spoil
(Verse 2)
Remember that dive bar, chasing the rising sun?
Spilled our secrets into melodies, one by one
You swore you'd write a symphony, a masterpiece untold
Now the melody's faded, leaving just the cold
(Pre-Chorus)
Another restless dreamer, another dream gone dark
Searching for an answer, lost in the after-park
Frayed notebooks filled with verses, none that ignite
Is this the burden of a heart that burns so bright?
(Chorus)
We built our castles out of shattered dreams
Kings and queens of heartache, a cathartic scream
Lost loves and faded glories, fuel for the midnight oil
Bleeding onto the page, stories that never spoil
(Bridge)
But maybe the beauty's not in the happy end
Maybe it's the journey, the lessons that transcend
The scars we wear like badges, the battles we all fight
Fueling the fire that burns so fiercely in the night
(Chorus)
We built our castles out of shattered dreams
Kings and queens of heartache, a cathartic scream
Lost loves and faded glories, fuel for the midnight oil
Bleeding onto the page, stories that never spoil
(Outro)
So let the words keep flowing, let the tears keep falling
In this symphony of heartbreak, our voices keep calling
We are the restless dreamers, with souls that bleed and fight
Our stories will echo on, long into the night
[fade out]
