Fortress of glass

[Verse] In the darkness I stand alone Bitter echoes of the battle They're all I hear Fighting for a cause We believed But now the cost is oh so clear [Verse 2] Friends beside me Brothers in arms But now their faces linger in my mind Scenes of anguish Voices lost Their sacrifice I cannot leave behind [Chorus] Falling like stars Their light fades away Leaving trails of sorrow With every passing day In the echoes of war Our spirits forever bind Together we stand United in time [Instrumental Break] [Verse] Left in the rain Heartache and pain She slipped away Like a runaway train My love was pure But it wasn't enough Caught in a whirlwind Now I'm feeling so rough [Bridge] In the pouring rain I'm calling her name Hoping she'll hear My heart's desperate claim But the wind blew strong And carried her away Leaving me here To face the cold and gray [Chorus] Lost in the storm Can't find my way back home In this endless night I'm all on my own Her love was the anchor that kept me secure But now I'm adrift And my heart's torn and sore [Big Finish] I'm a fortress of glass Standing tall and strong But inside I'm longing To belong With every crack I feel the pain But I'll keep holding on I'll never be the same [End]
