Upon deceit I've built a kingdom; A mighty fortress declaring freedom. She stands up tall; brave as can be And gazes outward toward the sea. But when one’s castle’s built on sand, There is a chance it may not stand. For secrets hide behind her doors And crawl through cracks beneath her floors. Until the light sheds on the lies, The castle wears her sweet disguise And secrets linger without a sound Until the kingdom tumbles down.

The Kingdom
Upon deceit I've built a kingdom; A mighty fortress declaring freedom. She stands up tall; brave as can be And gazes outward toward the sea. But when one’s castle’s built on sand, There is a chance it may not stand. For secrets hide behind her doors And crawl through cracks beneath her floors. Until the light sheds on the lies, The castle wears her sweet disguise And secrets linger without a sound Until the kingdom tumbles down.
