Текст La Dispute – The Castle Builders

«How strange it must’ve been back when we shook at the sight of sweat»
Let our worries wander out of like water streaming from a spring
And sing of all the things our heads have failed to ruin
There’s so much they have failed to ruin yet
Bright as lightning, loud as thunder
We’ll move all the hurt aside to let love sustain our passions
And move up and onward
We are not our losses, we are only the extent to which we love
So build a home for your family, and build a castle for your friends
Now set their beds with sheets and blankets, keep them safe until the end
I’ve felt the damage and burn from the fallout
My love failed but theirs prevailed
My friends, I’m only flesh and bone
But I won’t let you die alone
So leave our hearts at the foot of the mountain
Let our burdens be locked in the stone
If you will help me roll it upward
I won’t let you die alone
I see a beauty springing upward from the earth and from out our hearts
For all the bad that seems to plague us, I swear to you there’s good
No, oh, I won’t let you die alone
My, love, I will not let you die alone
They say that death is not a problem, it’s a promise
I can only say for sure that when it makes your bed I’ll kiss your head «Goodnight»
So speak of all the love we lost, and what it cost us
Left us beg our breath to stop but we kept on and

We were strong
We stayed bright as lightning
We sang loud as thunder, we moved ever forward
We are not our failures. We are love
