I Can't Leave

[Verse]

Brick by brick I built it high

A monument to every lie

The echoes of love I never knew

Each stone a scar where my soul could not break through

[Prechorus]

No doors...

no keys..

no open skies.

This fortress stands where my dreams have died

[Chorus]

Impenetrable walls of glass

A prison where only shadows pass

No one enters

no one sees

I'm trapped inside

but I hold the keys

Yet I can't leave

I can't leave

[Verse 2]

The voices fade in the air so thin

A world outside I’ll never truly be in

The garden grows but can't take root

Silence speaks drowning out the truth

[Bridge]

I shout

I scream

but these walls won’t crack

The weight of time just pushes back

A mirror shows the face I hide

In This fragile cage where I reside

[Chorus]

Impenetrable walls of glass

A prison where only shadows pass

No one enters

no one sees

I'm trapped inside

but I hold the keys

Yet I can't leave

I can't leave
