[Verse 1] Sometimes it's hard to stop keeping score, replaying things in my head, all the things that I've said. You know I never really fitted in, I never cared, at least that's what I said, that's what you thought I meant. But the truth is I lied, gotta swallow my pride, it was easy to pretend, didn't wanna see where it would end. [Chorus - swells] Because I've been trying to be different, didn't need a thing, acting like I won, forgetting everything. Building up the walls , just to watch them fall. Building up my fortress, standing in the darkness. [Verse 2] Choking on my words, pretending like it's nothing, you turned it into something, it didn't mean nothing. Reading through the silence, sometimes I like the quiet, I know you never liked it, so I tried to hide it. [Bridge] But I just needed to find my wings, never learnt how to fly, it's hard to when you've never seen the sky. [Chorus - swells] Because I've been trying to be different, didn't need a thing, acting like I won, forgetting everything. Building up the walls , just to watch them fall. Building up my fortress, standing in the darkness. [Chorus - swells] Because I've been trying to be different, didn't need a thing, acting like I won, forgetting everything. Building up the walls , just to watch them fall. Building up my fortress, standing in the darkness.
