Burning Castles

Nathan Wagner

Compositor: Nathan Wagner

I see this fortress rising high
Each brick I laid in desperate times
No gates, just walls that hide my soul away
Don't know when I fell this deep
Let fear and pride bury everything
Paving this misery, I'm locked in place

Hey
Light it up, let it rage
All the flames blaze
Promise we can make it better
Hey
Let the fire burn the chains
All the pain fade
We won't let you hurt forever

I watch these memories flood my mind
Regrets I wish I could confine
Years past, but still they bind
I'm so ashamed
Locked up in this misery
How traumas tainted every part of me
The man I used to be is so far gone

Hey
Light it up, let it rage
All the flames blaze
Promise we can make it better
Hey
Let the fire burn the chains
All the pain fade
We won't let you hurt forever

I'll let it burn
Let it all burn
Breathe in us new life
Resurrect the parts that died
Let your spirit guide
Till this fortress falls and shatters in the light

Hey
Light it up, let it rage
All the flames blaze
Promise we can make it better
Hey
Let the fire burn the chains
All the pain fade
We won't let you hurt forever
