Curled up in the corner of my fortress A refuge from this overwhelming world Thick stone walls which no harm can trespass Behind the curtains, I surrender to nothingness Paralyzed Afraid of what might never happen Paralyzed Feeling the pain of what never hurt me Paralyzed Afraid of losing what I don't have My fear of suffering got me suffering from all I fear Stronghold The walls that keel me safe, imprison me Stronghold Memories confine me in my misery Stronghold Until reality is a safe place to live Stronghold Bonded with fear, my only company Bonded with fear, I face another day Bonded with fear, my only company Shielded from failure, judgement, defeat Hurting from scenarios that don't exist Turning possibilities into dead-ends Dread sovereign before hope and faith Paralyzed Afraid of what might never happen Paralyzed Feeling the pain of what never hurt me Paralyzed Afraid of losing what I don't have My fear of suffering got me suffering from all I fear Stronghold The walls that keel me safe, imprison me Stronghold Memories confine me in my misery Stronghold Until reality is a safe place to live Stronghold Bonded with fear, my only company
