Silicon Fortress

Piece by piece and word by word
You’re building your wall
Outside it looks unbreakable
Consuming us all

To defend, to attack
Attack everyone
Who dares to get too close
To leave you alone

Why do you hide behind it?
Why not live in peace? Tell me why
Don’t you want to be seen
Stay close are you afraid? Yes you are

Do you wanna know me?
I want to meet you
Know your fears feel your anguish

Do you wanna know me?
I want to meet you
Tell me what’s behind that fortress

When I try to find you
I see many faces
(Too much perfection)
(I need attention)

You seem strong but now I see
You hide behind that screen
(Now so fragile)
(Come to real world)

You are living a lie
As this wall, so thin
As this tower, so high
Won’t blame you if you try

You don’t need to hate me
I am just a messenger
Just take a breath and
Hear the words you cannot speak

Why do you hide behind it?
Why not live in peace? Tell me why
Don’t you want to be seen?
Stay close are you afraid? Yes you are

Do you wanna know me?
I want to meet you
Wipe your tears, calm your anger

Do you wanna know me?
I want to meet you
Show me what’s inside that fortress

When I try to find you
I see many faces
(Too much perfection)
(I need attention)

You seem strong but now I see
You hide behind that screen
(Now so fragile)
(Come to real world)
