My mind is my castle
My feelings locked in
I go in to battle
Those demons won’t win
I build my defences
You won't break down these walls
I hide my emotions
My defences won’t fall
My fortress around me
My moat it is full
If you try to get close
Then the drawbridge I pull
My silence is my soldiers
When I feel under attack
The quiet and the coldness
Keeps those demons held back
My thoughts are the dungeons
Where it feels full of dirt
But it’s really not filthy
There's just full of hurt
I’m king of my castle
I’m my worst enemy
The person I’m fighting
Is simply just me
So I must learn to conquer
Those demons you see
Because that is the way
I can set myself free
