Lyrics
**Verse 1:**
I saw her standing in the glow,
Heart of gold, but I’m moving slow,
Tried to catch her eye, but I’m stuck in my pride,
Every step closer, I take two steps aside.
**Pre-Chorus:**
She’s a whisper in the night,
But my heart’s caught in a fight,
I wanna break these walls,
But the echoes of my past call.
**Chorus:**
Oh, I’m trying to love again,
But my ego won’t let me win,
She’s a dream that feels so real,
But my heart’s not ready to feel.
I’m a king without a throne,
Building castles made of stone,
And the higher that I climb,
The more I leave her behind.
**Verse 2:**
Every word I say feels rehearsed,
I’m a prisoner of my own universe,
She’s the sun, I’m a cloud of gray,
Trying to find the light but I’m lost in the fray.
**Pre-Chorus:**
She’s a melody I can’t play,
Caught in the rhythm of yesterday,
I wanna tear down these walls,
But my pride's the one that stalls.
**Chorus:**
Oh, I’m trying to love again,
But my ego won’t let me win,
She’s a dream that feels so real,
But my heart’s not ready to feel.
I’m a king without a throne,
Building castles made of stone,
And the higher that I climb,
The more I leave her behind.
**Bridge:**
If I could let it go,
Drop the crown and let her know,
That beneath this armor made of steel,
There’s a heart that’s ready to heal.
But every time I reach for her hand,
My reflection stops me, it’s hard to understand.
**Chorus:**
Oh, I’m trying to love again,
But my ego won’t let me win,
She’s a dream that feels so real,
But my heart’s not ready to feel.
I’m a king without a throne,
Building castles made of stone,
And the higher that I climb,
The more I leave her behind.
**Outro:**
So I’m standing here tonight,
With the stars as my guide,
Maybe one day I’ll find a way,
To let go of the pride that leads me astray.
Oh, I’m trying to love again,
But my ego’s still in the way.
Yeah, my ego’s still in the way.
