[Verse]
I built a castle in my head
Stacked it high with words unsaid
A perfect world where we could stay
But I let the doubts creep in and fray
[Verse 2]
You said my name like it was gold
I held it tight but then I scolded
Every move I made felt wrong
I turned our love into a caution song
[Chorus]
I’m tangled in thought and I’m breaking the seams
Crushing the life out of our fragile dreams
I wanted forever but I held too tight
Now I’m the shadow that hides from the light
[Verse 3]
I traced your steps like lines in sand
Questioned every touch of your hand
Chased the ghost of who you were
And lost the truth in the way we blurred
[Bridge]
I let the fear write the script
Tore the pages as they slipped
And now I stand here all alone
A stranger in a love I owned
[Chorus]
I’m tangled in thought and I’m breaking the seams
Crushing the life out of our fragile dreams
I wanted forever but I held too tight
Now I’m the shadow that hides from the light
