Fortress

I'm worried about all my doubts
Deep inside my head
If I let them out
Will they leave or will they haunt me?
Will they haunt me?

I'm holding a guide with no words, lines, or cityscapes
Is yours unlike mine?
Maybe we're both lost and searching
Blank maps are worthless

No one is an island
But an ocean lies between
I found you in a fortress
When I crossed your violent seas

Walls designed to keep you out
Our calls won't make it through when we fall
The wars raging on in our isolation
Walls designed to keep you out
Our calls won't make it through when we fall
Nobody wins when we hide in shame

And yet we still pretend
And carry on

Sing your song and dance
As you stroll down the avenue
And when the day is done
Is it fun
When you feel like caving in?
Patience wearing thin
Oh yeah, yeah

Just reach out your hand
Here's your chance
I'll be there to hold you
Kindly understand
Nothing's wrong with having those scars
Wear 'em proudly on your heart

No one is an island
But an ocean lies between
I found you in a fortress
When I crossed your violent seas

Walls designed to keep you out
Our calls won't make it through when we fall
The wars raging on in our isolation
Walls designed to keep you out
Our calls won't make it through when we fall
Nobody wins when we hide in shame

And yet we still pretend
We'll carry on

Wooh!
We'll carry on!
We'll carry on!

Walls designed to keep you out
Our calls won't make it through when we fall
The wars raging on in our isolation
Walls designed to keep you out
Our calls won't make it through when we fall
Nobody wins when we hide in shame

And yet we still pretend (Oh)
And carry on
Woohoo!
