Stronghold

Curled up in the corner of my fortress

A refuge from this overwhelming world

Thick stone walls which no harm can trespass

Behind the curtains, I surrender to nothingness

Paralyzed

Afraid of what might never happen

Paralyzed

Feeling the pain of what never hurt me

Paralyzed

Afraid of losing what I don't have

My fear of suffering got me suffering from all I fear

Stronghold

The walls that keep me safe, imprison me

Stronghold

Memories confine me in my misery

Stronghold

Until reality is a safe place to live

Stronghold

Bonded with fear, my only company

Bonded with fear, I face another day

Bonded with fear, my only company

Shielded from failure, judgement, defeat

Hurting from scenarios that don't exist

Turning possibilities into dead-ends

Dread sovereign before hope and faith

Paralyzed

Afraid of what might never happen

Paralyzed

Feeling the pain of what never hurt me

Paralyzed

Afraid of losing what I don't have

My fear of suffering got me suffering from all I fear

Stronghold

The walls that keep me safe, imprison me

Stronghold

Memories confine me in my misery

Stronghold

Until reality is a safe place to live

Stronghold

Bonded with fear, my only company
