(Verse 1)
I built a fortress, stone by cold stone
Safe in the silence, standing alone.
I always thought I'd be impassible
Untouchable, steady, and rational.
But the foundation is shaking, the ground starts to shift
I’m losing my balance, I’m catching your drift.
I held up the shield, I tried to stay strong
But you found the weakness I hid for so long.
(Pre-Chorus)
But my walls are now breaking, they crumble to dust
Surrendering logic, surrendering trust.
My heart can't stop beating, it pounds in my chest
Put to the fire, put to the test.
(Chorus)
You broke them with what you called 'love'
Like a storm coming down from the skies above.
Tryna make me believe every word
The sweetest deception that I ever heard.
You gave me hope, and you gave me life
But now you only left cuts, like a knife.
Yeah, it cuts like a knife.
(Verse 2)
Now I’m awake but I’m walking in sleep
Dreaming of the impossible, buried so deep.
We play with the fire, we dance with the flame
But I’m the one burning when you call my name.
It was supposed to be healing, supposed to be light
So why does it feel like a war every night?
Your image is etched on the back of my mind
But peace is the one thing I just cannot find.
(Bridge)
Is it a blessing? Or is it a curse?
To feel it so deeply, for better or worse.
You opened the door, and you let the wind in
Now I don’t know where the scars truly begin.
I wanted the world, I wanted the dream
But nothing is ever quite what it seems.
(Guitar Solo)
(Melodic, sad, and drifting)
(Chorus)
You broke my walls with what you called 'love'
Like a storm coming down from the skies above.
Tryna make me believe every word
The sweetest deception that I ever heard.
You gave me hope, and you gave me life
But now you only left cuts, like a knife.
(Outro)
Sharp and cold.
The story we told.
You gave me life...
Just to cut like a knife.
Dreaming of the impossible.
Dreaming of the impossible.
