A Day To Break

Playing hide and seek under my bed sheets
Locked in a castle whispering your name
I couldn't hide for long before you had me undone
Ripped off the bandage and the bleeding begun

Tears falling down in your name
Words spilling out like rain
I hoped you'd never change
Just sweep me away
To the castle that we built
It took a year or two to build and a day to break

You wrote twelve love letters for twelve nights
Just to pick a fight the last night or
The senior prom you didn't like my friends
So we spent it alone and I hoped for the end

Pulled in with your hands
Sucked into a man
I hoped you'd never change
I wanted to be swept away
To the castle that we built
It took a year or two to build and a day to break

But the truth is
When it was pouring
And I was sick from the rain
Building us up brick by brick
Well you just watched from the safety of a window
Waving with a smile
A wave that should have been goodbye

So I wiped away the tears that I gave to you
I wrote so many songs and even I forgot they were about you
Castles don't break in one night
I hope they found you alright
