Lyrics

I'm walking tall in my castle
I'm walking tall on my knees
My foundations are fragile
Can't see the forest for the trees
I'm stuck like a broken record
Chasing the same old faded tale
Living life up here in this jail
With no probation or money for bail
But that's all me, that's all me
Walk away, I can't follow
My promises remain hollow
It's the bitter pill that I swallow
I'm stuck like a broken record
Chasing the same old faded
Hold up, stop, release
Don't want some closure
It's 1am, come over
Cos I need that, need that
This could be the last time in so long
After this, I'm guessing you're gone
Cos I respect that this is all wrong
But this is more than just lust
I can feel the expectation
But my heart was stolen a long time ago
And I'm waiting on it like patience
And I need that, need that
Like I need a place of my own
I moved back with my flatmate
And at 25, I'm too grown
Just give me some space, give me some time
I'm broken, lying in pieces
You're all in my head, you walk in my thoughts
I'm telling you all of my secrets
When you call me over
It's easy to release
When you call me over
It softens and I breathe peace
I'm walking tall in my castle
You helped me off of my knees
My foundations are stronger
I find shelter under these leaves
I found space like distance
You gave me all that I need
That shade from under these trees
Helped me plant and water that seed
I'm talking paranoia, that's all gone
Shift the blame, that's all gone
I've been stuck in repeat for so long
Fighting myself like I'm so strong
You came and you let me release
When all I could feel was defeat
I gave you the key to my castle
I'm walking tall on my feet
Please hear me out now
I've been casting shadows over
Everything we do
Keep me close to you
Please hear me out now
I've been casting shadows over
Everything we do
Keep me close to you
Please hear me out now
I've been casting shadows over
Everything we do
Keep me close to you
I'm walking tall in my castle
You helped me off of my knees
My foundations are stronger
I find shelter under these trees
When you call me over
It's easy to release
When you call me over
It softens and I breathe peace
