Why did you call it, what you called it?
You could've called it off
Did you ever feel the way I did, at all?
Probably gets you off
Thinkin' I'm broken
Shadows holdin' me with my fingers crossed
Like I'm in a corner, back against the wall
But I promise I'm not

Up, up, in the madness
You turned a lover to a savage
Think you're addicted to my sadness
No more

You don't get in my brain
You don't fill up the spaces
I don't whisper your name
Now that I've built a fortress
I'll never be the same
So, I'm cutting my losses
I'm not letting you in
Now that I've built a fortress
When you call I ignore it
I built a fortress (mm)
Yeah, I built a fortress

Thought that you meant it
When you spent all those quiet nights on me (mm)
Told me all about the secrets that you keep
I thought you were so deep
So badly wanting somethin'
So I let you keep takin' me
Up, up, in the madness, madness

You don't get in my brain
You don't fill up the spaces
I don't whisper your name
Now that I've built a fortress
I'll never be the same
So I'm cutting my losses
I'm not letting you in
Now that I've built a fortress
When you call I ignore it
I built a fortress (mm)
Yeah, I built a fortress

You, said you did, but you don't give a fuck about us
You, all the words that you don't say speak the loudest
You, said you did, but you don't give a fuck about us
'Bout us, don't say, don't say

You don't get in my brain
You don't fill up the spaces
I don't whisper your name
Now that I've built a fortress
I'll never be the same
So I'm cutting my losses
I'm not letting you in
Now that I've built a fortress
When you call I ignore it
I built a fortress (mm)
Yeah, I built a fortress

When you call I ignore it
I built a fortress (mm, no, no)
Did you ever feel the way I did at all?
