Cardboard Castles

Lyrics

Out on the curb again
 On the curb again
 I've come to learn it's hard and firm
 Out on the curb again
 Out on the curb again
 On the curb again
 I've come to learn it's hard and firm
 Out on the curb again
 I'm in my room making cardboard castles
 With shoestring rope
 Soup spoon drawbridge, tinfoil moat
 I'm still dreaming after all these years
 I'm in my room making cardboard castles
 With shoestring rope
 Soup spoon drawbridge, tinfoil moat
 I'm still dreaming after all these years
 Because if we don't build it who will?
 I do things on a shoestring that you couldn't do for a cool mil'
 I run with no laces, and when I fall I start
 To build my Taj Mahal with shit I found at Dollarmart
 This life's our greatest project
 The journey's all an art
 But I built my perfect nest, and it's 'bout to fall apart
 Again and again and then I just I make it twice as high
 And I give my tower teeth, and I watch it bite the sky
 Because I might just cry if I don't keep it moving
 I focus on what I can make and not what just got ruined
 'Cause every stone will crumble down to dust, to dust, to dust
 And I say love thy neighbor, and I say fuck thy hater
 There's nothing I can't solve with duct tape and construction paper
 I don't want a Band-Aid, I'll only rip it off, I'll rip it off
 Out on the curb again
 On the curb again
 I've come to learn it's hard and firm
 Out on the curb again
 Out on the curb again
 On the curb again
 I've come to learn it's hard and firm
 Out on the curb again
 I know someday I'll pass, and maybe then rest
 I'm laying on my back
 Heaven's my bench press
 'Cause my imagination is crazy as Glenn Beck
 A cloud is floating by in the shape of a rent check
 And when the world ends, that's what I'll plan towards
 Then I'll trust girlfriends and maybe landlords
 'Cause I been played but I'm looking for more
 I say, what would I gain if I took it to court?
 'Cause if people were perfect then there wouldn't be war
 We stay pushing but once we got a foot in the door
 We get our toes chopped off and a foot of manure
 I still gotta believe people are good at the core
 'Cause if we weren't, what's at stake?
 Why would we stay to break what we make
 And create all these beautiful mistakes
 When they blow our house down
 Let's draw on the walls, the walls, the walls
 I'm in my room making cardboard castles
 With shoestring rope
 Soup spoon drawbridge, tinfoil moat
 I'm still dreaming after all these years
 I'm in my room making cardboard castles
 With shoestring rope
 Soup spoon drawbridge, tinfoil moat
 I'm still dreaming after all these years
 Out on the curb again
 On the curb again
 I've come to learn it's hard and firm
 Out on the curb again
 Out on the curb again
 On the curb again
 I've come to learn it's hard and firm
 Out on the curb again
 I'm in my room making cardboard castles
 With shoestring rope
 Soup spoon drawbridge, tinfoil moat
 I'm still dreaming after all these years
 I'm in my room making cardboard castles
 With shoestring rope
 Soup spoon drawbridge, tinfoil moat
 I'm still dreaming after all these years
