Citadel

Set a fire to all I’d hoped to
But I’m still trying to stop from tossing in my sleep
And I’ve been here before in the back of my mind
So desolate and dry

I’ve made a home in darker corners of my mind
To reminisce among the dust in the room
And I’m sure I’ll be alright
I’m sure I’ll be just fine

I still find solace in a home on haunted grounds
Where no one dares to look

A safe haven where I choose to hang my head
When the world is at my fragile skin again
Where there’s no need to pick myself from the floor

I’ve made a home in darker corners of my mind
To reminisce among the dust in the room
And I’m sure I’ll be alright
I’m sure I’ll be just fine

These pacing thoughts
With out much left
Retrace these halls to lay my mind to rest

Reminisce among the ashes of a bitter past
It’s all I’ve ever known
It’s all that I can grasp
I’ve built these walls as high as they can go to barricade myself

I’ve made a home in darker corners of my mind
To reminisce among the dust in the room
And I’m sure I’ll be alright
I’ll be pacing empty halls till I forget my given name
