Hello people of the internet world! I know I have a bunch of other stuff going on but I was listening to this song on You Tube and had this idea. I couldn't let it fade! It's an idea that will probably get wildly out of hand. Beware- slightly AU. So here is a song fic to "Cardboard Castles" by Diana Degarmo
Disclaimer- I OWN NOTHING EXCEPT FOR THE PLOT AND IDEA!
She was a rainbow once
So colorful, but that was once
Now that's impossible to see,
to see
With a voice subliminal
It's the only sign she's
beautiful
Here's all that's left of the dignity
She
goes...Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey yeah, yeah
Caitlyn used to be so bright and cheerful. She was like a rainbow of happiness. Now she's not. Her voice is all she has left of her dignity.
She sings alone in her apartment to immaginary audience singing "Hey, yeah, yeah,yeah, Hey, yeah, yeah".
There's a girl in New
York City
Skyline's no longer pretty
Bound for destination
anywhere
She grew up in California
Big dreams they tend to
own you there
Now she's building cardboard castles in the air
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
She now lives in New York City. In a one bedroom apartment. When she looks out the window the skylines are no longer pretty although they lead everywhere and anywhere- just not for her.
She used to live in California. She had big dreams. Who wouldn't have big dreams there? Come on, it California!
That all changed though. So now she's left with no dreams, just building cardboard castles in the air.
He was a pretty boy
Rolling cash his only joy
Now that's impossible to see, to
see
Used to be one of them
Now the men in suits are avoiding
him
He's lost his credit card but hey he's free
Nate's father was a rich man. He wanted to grow up to be like him. He did, but the bank was re-possesed by the government. Now all his old business partners avoid him. He no longer has a credit card but he's free now.
There's a man in New
York City
Skylines no longer pretty
Bound for destination
anywhere
Had the whole world at his window
It seems so long
ago from there
Now he's building cardboard castles in the air
He now lives in an apartment in NYC. The skylines out his window, that are bound for destination anywhere, are no longer pretty to him.
He used to have the whole world at his window but that was long ago.
Now he's building cardboard castles in the air- seeing as he's left with no dreams.
Does anybody know
Does anybody care
Over here, over there
Building
cardboard castles in the air
No one knew what they were going through. Nobody cared about them. No one the here, no one over there even cared.
They didn't care they were building cardboard castles.
There's

End A/N: How'd you like it? Yes I ment to repat that one section three times because that's the way the song goes. So, you like it? Don't like it? Kinda iff-y? Tell me in a review!
