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
