Your heart is like a fortress

You keep your feelings locked away

Is it easier?

Does it make you feel safe?

You wander through the darkness

Of wilderness behind your eyes

I know you're afraid

But you gotta move on.

Every fortress falls

It is not the end

It ain't if you fall

But how you rise that says who you really are

So get up and come through

If ever your fortress caves

You're always safe.

I believe I know you

Yet, I don't truly know myself

I pray you won't feel as alone as I have felt.

I don't want to fail you so

I tell you the awful truth

Everyone faces darkness on their own

As I have done, so will you.

Every fortress falls

It is not the end

It ain't if you fall

But how you rise that says

Who you really are

So get up and go through

If ever your fortress caves

You're always safe in mine.

The earth spins round the sun

And behold

Everything happens

Every night that falls prey to sunrise.

If your fortress is under siege

You can always run for me

If your fortress is under siege

You can always run.

Every fortress falls

It is not the end

It ain't if you fall

But how you rise that says

Who you really are

So get up and go through

If ever your fortress caves

You're always safe in mine

If ever your fortress caves

You're always safe in mine

If ever your fortress caves

You're always safe in mine

Come on through

Come on through.
