Lyrics
Verse 1
In a crowded room, I’m standing still,
A thousand voices, but I don’t feel.
Got a mask on tight, it’s my only shield,
In the mirror, it’s a stranger that I see.
Pre-Chorus
Every word feels like a heavy chain,
Every glance, a shadow in the rain.
I build these walls, brick by brick,
To hide the cracks that start to split.
instrumental
Chorus
I’m a fortress, with a heart of stone,
Hiding from the world, I stand alone.
Fear of falling, fear of the unknown,
I keep my secrets buried deep, in this cold, dark throne.
Verse 2
Every day’s a battle, every breath a fight,
To keep the darkness from the light.
I wear this armor, but it weighs me down,
Lost in silence, I’m about to drown.
Pre-Chorus
Every smile feels like a heavy mask,
Every touch, a question I can’t ask.
I build these walls, they’re hard to break,
To guard the pain that’s all I’ve ever made
Chorus
I’m a fortress, with a heart of stone,
Hiding from the world, I stand alone.
Fear of falling, fear of the unknown,
I keep my secrets buried deep, in this cold, dark throne.
Bridge
I’m a ghost in the mirror, a shadow in the dark,
Searching for a spark, to ignite a broken heart.
But every time I try, I’m just too afraid,
To let the light in, to let the darkness fade.
Chorus
I’m a fortress, with a heart of stone,
Hiding from the world, I stand alone.
Fear of falling, fear of the unknown,
I keep my secrets buried deep, in this cold, dark throne.
Outro
Maybe one day I’ll find the strength inside,
To tear these walls down and let the light collide.
But for now, I’ll be the fortress, alone and free,
Hiding from the world, where no one can see me.
Oooooohhhh....
