Fortress

Go on and ring the alarm We gave it all we had on the battleground It just wasn't enough to keep us alive And I died a hundred times for you But it wasn't ever enough All that's left is a broken heart and blood on the knife Looking back, we were right in the middle of it Take a look around and see all the damage done You and I fought hard but no one won We built a fortress in these walls The taller they are, the worse the fall It turns out we weren't built for battle And these hands have scars to remind me that We built a fortress and watched it fall Our love was once a palace Til I fell victim to friendly fire, and now You've mastered the element of surprise I once was safe in your arms Til you shot me straight through the heart And I got lost behind enemy lines Looking back, we were right in the middle of it Take a look around and see all the damage done You and I fought hard but no one won We built a fortress in these walls (Yeah, looking back we were right in the middle of it) The taller they are, the worse the fall (Yeah, looking back there was no way we could've known it) It turns out we weren't built for battle And these hands have scars to remind me that We built a fortress and watched it fall Looking back, we were right in the middle of it Take a look around and see all the damage done You and I were one in a million We crossed a line, lost our minds in a civil war And now it's done Say goodbye to our kingdom come We built a fortress in these walls (Yeah, looking back we were right in the middle of it) The taller they are, the worse the fall (Yeah, looking back there was no way we could've known it) It turns out we weren't built for battle And these hands have scars to remind me that We built a fortress and watched it fall
