Stone Fortress
Unveiling the Stone Fortress: A Journey Beyond Walls
Lyrics
How's the view from your highest tower
Curious about the perspective from a position of power or authority
How's the fire in your heart
Inquiring about the passion or emotions within
Are you keeping it stoked
Asking if the passion is actively maintained
By burning bridges and love notes
Suggesting the destruction of relationships and sentimental messages
And reading letters end to start
Referring to the act of reading letters backward, possibly reflecting on past experiences
Well I'm done fighting dragons
Expressing a desire to move on from challenging or exhausting situations
And swimming across moats
Metaphorically describing overcoming obstacles
Walls that are six feet wide
Referring to emotional barriers
And mazes in your thoughts
Mentioning complex and intricate thoughts
You're a stone fortress
Describing someone as emotionally guarded and impenetrable
Come on let me in
Repeatedly requesting entry into the emotionally guarded person's life
Come on let me in
-You're a stone fortress
-Come on let me in
-Come on let me in
-Are you having fun all by your lonesome
Asking if the person is content being alone and secure
I bet it's nice and safe and warm
Assuming a sense of comfort in isolation
And all time times
Referencing past attempts to gain support or understanding
I tried to get you on my side
Expressing unsuccessful efforts to win the person over
They deflected off your walls
Indicating emotional defenses preventing connection
Said I'm done fighting dragons
Reiterating a desire to move on from challenges
and swimming across moats
Continuing the metaphor of overcoming obstacles
Walls that are six feet wide
Re-emphasizing emotional barriers
and mazes in your thoughts
Reinforcing the complexity of the person's thoughts
You're a stone fortress
Repeating the plea to break down emotional walls and be allowed in
Come on let me in
-Come on let me in
-You're a stone fortress
-Come on let me in
-Come on let me in
Reiterating the request for emotional access
So keep on building your castle higher
Encouraging the person to continue building their emotional defenses
And fill all cracks with care
Advising careful and thorough construction of emotional barriers
Is there even one window open
Questioning if there is any vulnerability or openness
Or did you close them all so tight
-Building castles in the night
Metaphorically referring to the act of building emotional fortifications
You're a stone fortress
Repeating the plea to be allowed into the emotionally guarded space
Come on let me in
-Come on let me in
-Said you're a stone fortress
-Come on let me in
-Come on and let me in
-Scaling a wall, scaling a wall
Using the metaphor of scaling walls, asking not to be abandoned in the process
don't let me fall, don't let me fall
-Scaling a wall, scaling a wall
-don't let me fall, don't let me fall
-You're a stone fortress
Final repetition of the plea to break through emotional barriers
Come on let me in
-Come on let me in
-You're a stone fortress
-Come on let me in
-Come on and let me in
