The Fortress ft. The Sunken Sea Lyrics

Crying in the corner of my room

My thoughts lay waste and consume

It's a battlefield, I'm no soldier

It's a raging war we weren't trained for

Building up my courage

As the threat that looms before me closes in

If there's carnage ahead, can I face it

It's a hateful affair

And it makes me feel so helpless all the time

Not knowing what to do

When the bad days come

Not knowing how to feel

When the walls come down

And the fortress is overrun

I think it's time to address

The scale of this

I think it's time to address

The scale of this

Flailing with my back against the wall

My blade sings true as I fall

There's a line, I can't hold it

As the phantoms advance, I grow colder

Lying in the ruins of my final folly

The deep dark closes in

It's a nightmare, I can't shake it

It's a hateful affair

And it makes me feel so helpless all the time

Not knowing what to do

When the bad days come

Not knowing how to feel

When the walls come down

And the fortress is overrun
