Fortress lyrics

Am I lost to wonder forever

Perhaps for the rest of my days

If all that has been surrendered

Will just go to waste?

You left me out in the distance

To wander this world on my own

Sometimes it’s so hard to admit it

But I can’t let go

I can’t let you go

[Chorus:]

Go on and take it all,

Go on and take it all

(The Fortress coming down)

I know we can’t save it all,

I know we can’t save it all

Everything is gone

Oh I have seen it all,

Oh I have seen it all

(The Fortress coming down)

Go on and take it all,

Go on and take it all

One thing I know is for certain

We cannot have all we want

Still this will not stop the hurting.

It is never gone

Now I hold on to the one thing

Too fragile to stand on its own

The fortress we built it is crumbling.

Still I can’t let go

I can’t let you go

[Chorus]

Oh, there’ll come a time, this I know

There’ll come a time

You’ll look back and regret when it’s gone

You’ll look back and regret what it’s gone

Oh, there’ll come a time, this I know

There’ll come a time

You’ll look back and regret when it’s gone

You’ll look back and regret what it’s gone

In the end,

Too far gone,

This I can’t deny

Still I keep holding on.

You know

There’s still time

On the outside looking in

Everything seems fine

But the fortress caving in

Comes down on me tonight

[Chorus]

Just take it all

Just take it all

Just take it all
