Fortress

I used to close my eyes and feel the breeze
 And every sky was blue as the sea
 But then the world came crumbling down
 My heart went missing, nowhere to be found
 Been building my walls so strong
 This fortress has taken over
 Now I finally see
 What's become of me
 Kept it away for so long
 And I will be back someday
 I will be there again
 The memory shall never fade
 Is it too late to make amends?
 Am I alone here with sorrow as my only friend?
 Look at me now, just a shadow of a broken man
 Picking up the pieces the best as I can
 Been building my walls so strong
 This fortress has taken over
 Now I finally see
 What's become of me
 Kept it away for so long
 And I will be back someday
 I will be there again
 The memory shall never fade
 I can remember the days when we all were strong and free
 Nothing in this empty house, just ghosts of you and me
 The words returns to sender, only echoes of a dream
 Now I finally see
 What's become of me
 Kept it away for so long
 And I will be back someday
 I will be there again
 The memory shall never fade
 The memory shall never fade
