Building Defensive Lines

Day by day

I keep searching for the truth

Brick by brick

I try to build walls around me

To protect myself,

From everything that I've been through

To protect myself

From everything that you put me through

I just want to be alone for now

But I don't wanna be on my own forever

There's nothing left for me

Still better than when we were together

I hardly remember your voice

Much better of without that noise

I'm sorry for telling you lies but

I love the sound you make

When you shut the fuck up

I know I wasted my time on you

Maybe on of my biggest mistakes

A mistake that I'll never repeat

You will never find somebody like me

After all the damage you've done

My heart will never heal again

I can see you falling into your own lies

And there's no one to get you out

Everything you love is gone

My mind is calm and peaceful for now!

Brick by brick

I am building a castle

To protect myself

But it feels like

It's been built over

Sand and salt and somehow

It's tumbling down

Every wave that crashes

Every wind that blows

Brings along your scent within

The taste of your lips

I'll try to forget you

Once and for all this time

You're just a fake

And the people I love the most

Are the ones I hurt

But I'll make 'em proud

For everytime I've been lost

For everytime I've been hated

I'll make you proud

Of who I am

I'll make you proud

Brick by brick

I am building a castle

To protect myself

But it feels like

It's been built over

Sand and salt and somehow

It's tumbling down
