When you find your castle on the hill
  with the bars on the windows
  will you burn the bridge behind you
  will you ever come out and see the sun again
  or will you hide
  and now how long has it been
  since you've seen the light
  
  make your way on the stairs
  to the top of your tower
  stone cold floors
  hardwood doors
  lead you to your room of plastic flowers
  they still look the same
  drenched in water
  it comforts you to think that they're alive
  
  it could have been easier than this
  if you threw it all away
  what would you miss
  it could have been too much of a chance to take
  the silence in your head would have to break
  your grip is slipping faster
  looks like you'll have to face yourself after all
  
  step outside the shadows of your cage
  strangled truth
  stolen youth
  is written on every line of every page
  it's your story
  do you want it back
  you have to decide if it is worth it
  swim across the swamp to the other side
  run until you're out of breath
  and when you look back they'll be nothing left
  but a memory fading quickly
  
  it could have been easier than this
  if you threw it all away
  what would you miss
  it could have been too much of a chance to take
  the silence in your head would have to break
  your grip is slipping faster
  looks like you'll have to face yourself after all
  
  it could have been easier than this
  if you threw it all away
  what would you miss
  it could have been too much of a chance to take
  the silence in your head would have to break
  your grip is slipping faster
  looks like you'll have to face yourself
  after all
