[Verse 1]
I’ve always loved fairy tales
Maybe that’s why I grin
If anything can happen
Then anything can begin
Don’t ask me who I trust
I don’t even trust my hands
How could I trust your shadow
When I can barely stand?
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep my head down low
I keep the hammer swinging
If you look too close
You’ll hear my mind start ringing
I build in quiet ways
So nobody can see
What’s shaking under plaster
What’s still inside of me
[Chorus]
Old castle house
Old castle house
I’m bringing it back
With my own two hands
Old castle house
Old castle house
You won’t see the cracks
Till I choose to stand
[Verse 2]
There’s stone behind the drywall
There’s history in the floor
The doors don’t fit the future
But I’m making room for more
The halls remember footsteps
The beams know every scar
I’m not just fixing pieces
I’m waking up a heart
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep my head down low
I keep the hammer swinging
If you look too close
You’ll hear my mind start ringing
I build in quiet ways
So nobody can see
What’s shaking under plaster
What’s still inside of me
[Chorus]
Old castle house
Old castle house
I’m bringing it back
With my own two hands
Old castle house
Old castle house
You won’t see the cracks
Till I choose to stand
[Bridge]
Maybe I laugh too loud
Maybe I disappear
Maybe I need these blueprints
Just to hold myself near
But under all this rubble
There’s a door I can’t ignore
And when I turn that handle
I’m not hiding anymore
[Final Chorus]
Old castle house
Old castle house
I’m bringing it back
With my own two hands
Old castle house
Old castle house
Anything is possible
When I start again
Old castle house
Old castle house
You won’t see the cracks
Till I choose to stand
MrMM
