I watched the foundation burn
And still I stayed
I watched the torch you held
Flicker and fade
Betrayed by myself for holding on so tight but
Now sadness sickens my heart and
Confusion, it blinds this sight
Alone I feel so alone
Maybe I'll turn this feeling into a wall of stone
And I'll build it big and strong
And I'll build it around my heart
Let no one but you tear it apart
I watched the foundation burn
And still I stayed
I watched the torch you held
Flicker and fade
Betrayed by myself for holding on so tight but
Now sadness sickens my heart and
Confusion, it blinds this sight
it blinds this sight
it blinds this sight
it blinds this sight
it blinds
So here's your invitation
And I hope you will accept
Please, remember the days out in the sun
And the promises kept
I'm writing these words from behind this wall
