Holding on to the fortress

Bunker down in between the walls

Looking up looking up

Fire's in the sky but the sun's not shining

I hear the sound in the distance

Feel the quake as my castle falls

It's not enough not enough

I'm praying to a lie now there's nowhere to hide

This house wasn't built for love

No I could tell you'd hit me over and over

With waves from your agitated mind

I'll stand tall while you rip me up

I know that it won't bring you closure

Come closer and see what you made of me

Buried deep in a mindset

Reaching out with your open arms

I fell in love fell in love

You were showing me the light but you left me blinded

I was a lone marionette

Just a toy under your control

When you were done you were done

You threw me to the side and you left me behind

This house wasn't built for love

No I could tell you'd hit me over and over

With waves from your agitated mind

I'll stand tall while you rip me up

I know that it won't bring you closure

Come closer and see what you made of me

Won't bring you
