Fortress
Bear's Den

I'll wait at the gates,

Or is it a fortress?

I'm calling the blame,

Just let me own it.

There are things I thought I could rise above,

And all the things I thought I was better than,

And a coward might call it a conscience,

And a liar might call it the truth -

Nothing could ever make me more frightened,

Than the thought of hurting you.


Watching you float across the isle of sand,

Before the fire works began -

I close my eyes,

And wrap my arms around you.

Do you remember what I whispered love?

Do you remember what I whispered, love?

This is how it's meant to be,

This is where we're supposed to be.

I don't think anyone -

Has ever loved -

Anyone -

The way I loved you.


So I wait at the gates

Of your fortress.

I'm calling the blame,

Won't you let me hold it?

And all the things I thought I could rise above -

I could not.

And all the things I thought I was better than -

I am not.


And a coward might call it a conscience,

And a liar might call it the truth -

Nothing could ever make me more frightened,

Than the thought of hurting you.

How could I hurt you?


Watching you float across the isle of sand,

Before the fireworks began.

I closed my eyes,

And wrapped my arms around you.

Do you remember what I whispered love?

Do you remember what I whispered, love?


This is how it's meant to be,

This is where we're supposed to be.

I don't think anyone -

Could ever love -

Anyone -

The way I love you.

The way I love you.

The way I love you.


This is how it's meant to be,

This is where we're supposed to be.

I don't think anyone -

Could ever love -

Anyone -

The way I love you.

The way I love you.
