"Fortress" lyrics

"Fortress"

Wake up
Wake up to failure
Wake up
Wake up to greed
Stand up
Stand to be counted
Face up
To what you need

You know, you know, you left me wanting
You know, you know, you left me free
Sunk in your teeth without no warning
Inflict the wound for all to see

Take everything you have and tear it all down
Follow your lead and burn it to the ground
Build another fortress
Your armor is getting thin
Throw away the key before you let me in

Running
Running in circles
Drifting
Beyond the pale
Empty
Of all excuses
Falling
Upon the rail

Drinking the lies of introspection
Eating the bread of your deceit
Savor the wrath of contemplation
Making a failure more complete

Take everything you have and tear it all down
Follow your lead and burn it to the ground
Build another fortress
Your armor is getting thin
Throw away the key before you let me in

Take everything you have and tear it all down
Follow your lead and burn it to the ground
Build another fortress
Your armor is getting thin
Throw away the key before you let me in

Take everything you have and tear it all down
