Lyrics

Four doors. Windows up
No one can see me in here
You built a fortress out of small-town lies
Said you'd been around the block to block the preying eyes
Played the veteran, acted like you knew the score
But when the lights went out, we were just kids on the floor
We gave away the only "first" we ever had to give
I thought we found a sacred way for us to live
But the innocence we broke was made of fragile glass
You faked the history, and then you left me in the past
Now I'M Parked In The Dark In My Sanctuary
Holding onto ghosts that are getting too heavy
You traded our sins for a seat beside my friend
And left me in the wreckage at the bitter end
Yeah, the engine is cold and the rain just pours
My sanctuary is a prison with four doors
A prison with four doors
A prison with four doors
I brought you my pieces, showed you where I bled
Told you I was drowning in the dark inside my head
I handed you my heart, completely stripped and bare
But you looked at my pain like it was nothing but a burden there
You called it pathetic, said it wasn't a "good look"
Just a messy page you wanted ripped out of the book
My vulnerability became the fatal flaw
That pushed you in his arms, the coldest thing I ever saw
I spent hours in the driver's seat, staring at the dash
Watching my first love turn to ash
Hours on the steering wheel, choking on the grief
While you're riding shotgun with the thief
You took the magic, you took the pride
Now there's nowhere left for me to hide
So I'M Parked In The Dark In My Sanctuary
Holding onto ghosts that are getting too heavy
You traded our sins for a seat beside my friend
And left me in the wreckage at the bitter end
Yeah, the engine is cold and the rain just pours
My sanctuary is a prison with four doors
Just a prison
Hope he treats you better than you treated me
Just a prison
