castle fading meant
The things we used to have/ Are fading all too fast, ... Like a castle in the sand/ Well some things they're meant to last.
best born burdens combined couple daughter definitely emotional fact highs honest listener mixed rock roll saturate strange
That was kind of strange ... yeah. It's definitely been a strange couple of years, those things combined with the fact that my daughter was born as well, which was one of the best times of my life. Mixed emotions, and I think in the album, there are highs and lows. I think we don't let that saturate it too much -- we still look at it as a rock 'n' roll album, and we try not to unload on the listener too much with emotional burdens -- but it's an honest record, and we're honest lyrically, and I think you can listen to it in different ways.

I have a new respect for the mermaids, ... because it's very tough what they do.
beautiful song
It should be beautiful spectacle, ... The song has always had that kind of vibe.
