In our fortress of shame We're shaved down to the bone and left out exposed We help ourselves out of the rain When we catch the lies Become embarra**ed by the truth and won't dare move Cause we keep on slicing the pain Now there's nowhere to hide Showing up in the dark like the flame from a spark Yet I didn't see it fall from my heart d**h is just a word Stories go unheard But I don't want them to know That in our fortress of shame We light candles to show them we can avoid them Till the end runs me to a tread When I click my fingers You are here once again to brighten up my head But you keep me on that tread d**h is just a word Stories go unheard But I don't want them to know, knowwwww In our fortress of shame We build towers too tall So we see nothing at all Our fortress has no reason to stand
