Wrought Iron Gate

There's a cold wind blowing
Through the streets of this town
And you can feel the way she bites and she chews
Without a fear of what might break her
Or the things that might take her
She's running
And there's nothing you can do

She's a strong, raging fire
She's getting higher and higher
The ceiling's about to catch flame
And though the roof, it may fall
Upstanding are her walls
She's locked up
Behind a wrought iron gate

Pent up in her own tower
Contemplating by the hour
Stress and overthinking due at 3
With a 6-foot hole below her
And nothing to show for
The devil that's coming for you and me

How many lies can we take
Before the fortress starts to break
And the band starts playing out of tune?
And I know all too well
Cos' long ago my walls fell
The feeling that's about to break you

When the winter breeze starts blowin'
And the rivers stop flowin'
And ice starts to cover up the sea
She'll be fighting off them demons
Without sense nor belief in
The reason
Or why she thinks that she's free
