The walls won't come tumbling down There's no horn player from Jericho The fortress took years to build And more scars than the stones let show
You chipped away at the barrier You really, truly did For a while some interior was exposed The fortress' contents unhid
But danger is ever present Some entrants will be foes And castles have no filter The drawbridge is either open or closed
And even thought the door was shut You swam across the moat Fighting to be let in Not realizing the futility of your hope
In the end you will not win No matter how strong the advance The guards are strong and the castle cold You never stood a chance
However, you left something long lasting Something that cannot be taken back You left a crack in the fortress And maybe one day the walls will collapse
Sometimes you aren't as ready to love as others want you to be
