Let me be your fortress, I'll let you in Hideaway your secrets, I'll carry them You're the one I've wanted to defend If you let me be the hero I've never been 'Cause our hearts can't cover the tracks We both see where we keep comin' back I don't care what you've said in the past Out of the forest behind my door's a fortress Out of the forest behind my door's a fortress Let me be the war already won You can be the nation where I come from We can be the kingdom yet to come If you let me be, let me be the one 'Cause our hearts can't cover the tracks We both see where we keep comin' back I don't care what we've said in the past Out of the forest behind my door's a fortress Out of the forest behind my door's a fortress Evergreens, evergreens all up ahead of me Blazin' a trail with the enemy textin' me You like the best of me, not all the rest of me Reminds of 70, put 'em amphetamines Forever don't know what it meant to me Everything anyone ever has said to me But you call my reverie, like you were sent to me Must climb to the mezzanine, stay till we're 70 Under the stars at 70 years Out of the forest behind my door's a fortress Fortress Out of the forest behind my door's a fortress

You take me out to the garden, On our backs under the fiery sky. You said this feels like falling, When all I've ever known is goodbye. In the shadow of the floodlights I kiss your cheek as you held my side. We've been running down a feeling, Crashing into the black and white In the middle of the night. Two Hearts flying out together like there's One Love holding us forever in this Cold World ain't it so much better when two hearts bleed into one In young love. I keep the car running, Catch your eye as the screen door slams. There's my heart coming, Pretending there's no sweat on my hands. Maybe we'll just keep on driving, Take this baby on out of this place. I close my eyes and I'm flying Feel the thick against my face, against my face. Two Hearts flying out together like there's One Love holding us forever in this Cold World ain't it so much better when two hearts bleed into one In young love. In young love. In young love. It's like we never see heartbreak or goodbyes Just the stars shining in our eyes Love is such a simple song and it's waiting for you just to drop your guard See in us is believing and Running right through the ceiling and Coming around like the evening sun In Young Love

These back steps are steeper to the ground The brightest stars are falling down I'm walking the edge, walking the tightest rope We can be frank, reality rips on through, rolling like a hurricane I'm over the bridge and under the rain If everything's falling, if everything's changed If I'm in the open, if I'm in the way What am I doing here If you're not with me What have I got to live for, if it's just my own dream Take it back to the beginning, back to the start When gravity's pulling, you're still holding my heart You come crashing down Crashing down These four walls are closing in on me The talk is louder than I'll sing I want to be there, want to be where you are But you know it all, Every look and smile that aren't meant to break I'm over the bridge and under the rain If everything's falling, if everything's changed If I'm in the open, if I'm in the way What am I doing here If you're not with me What have I got to live for, if it's just my own dream Take it back to the beginning, back to the start When gravity's pulling, you're still holding my heart You come crashing down Crashing down And you say that everything is different, Why don't we just hold on And you say that everything is different, Why don't we just hold on Crashing down Crashing down Crashing down You come crashing down You come crashing down

We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time Talkin' 'bout high hopes and day dreams Never thought love, never thought life Could take us far beyond what we believed As long as I got your love next to me I'm better than I used to be I been chasin' this dream I'm so glad you understand Climbing up a mountain, would it leave you hardly standing Things don't go just the way you planned it But I never thought we'd have, so much to take for granted You never know what you got till it's gone Guess I never know cause I know you're my only one We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time Talkin' 'bout high hopes and day dreams Never thought love, never thought life Could take us far beyond what we believed As long as I got your love next to me I'm better than I used to be Better than I used to be It's been a long day alone And I can hardly stand it My plane leaves tomorrow But my heart has already landed Things didn't go, just the way I planned it But I never thought we'd have, so much to take for granted You never know what you got till it's gone Guess I never know cause I know you're my only one We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time Talkin' 'bout high hopes and day dreams Never thought love, never thought life Could take us far beyond what we believed As long as I got your love next to me I'm better than I used to be Better than I used to be Better than I used to be Better than I used to be We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time Talkin' 'bout high hopes and day dreams Never thought love, never thought life Could take us far beyond what we believed As long as I got your love next to me I'm better than I used to be

Like ships in the night You keep passing me by Just wasting time Trying to prove who's right And if it all goes crashing into the sea If it's just you and me Trying to find the light Like ships in the night letting cannonballs fly Say what you mean and it turns to a fight Fists fly from my mouth as it turns south You're down the driveway, I'm on the couch Chasing your dreams since the violent fifth grade Trying to believe in your silent own way Cause we'll be okay, I'm not going away Like you watched at fourteen as it went down the drain And pop's stayed the same and your mom's moved away How many of our parents seem to make it anyway? We're just fumbling through the gray Trying to find a heart that's not walking away Turn the lights down low Walk these halls alone We can feel so far from so close Like ships in the night You keep passing me by Just wasting time Trying to prove who's right And if it all goes crashing into the sea If it's just you and me Trying to find the light Like ships in the night You're passing me by You're passing me by Like ships in the night I'm at the airport waiting on a second plane Had to pack and you had cramps And I was late, headed to a red carpet They won't know my name Riding in silence, all that we wanna say About to board when you call on the phone You say, "I'm sorry, I'll be waiting at home" Feels like we're learning this out on our own Trying to find a way down the road we don't know Turn the lights down low Walk these halls alone We can feel so far from so close Like ships in the night You keep passing me by Just wasting time Trying to prove who's right And if it all goes crashing into the sea If it's just you and me Trying to find the light Like ships in the night You're passing me by You're passing me by Like ships in the night And I'm gonna find my way Back to your side And I'm gonna find my way Back to your side Like ships in the night You keep passing me by Just wasting time Trying to prove who's right And if it all goes crashing into the sea If it's just you and me Trying to find the light Like ships in the night You're passing me by You're passing me by Like ships in the night

I don't want love to grow old To sink your heavy soul One day we'll be gone With our letters and songs Shaded in to you Graced in to you Shaded in to you Peeping us equipping Head on in the closed gate Until I see a weapon Until I see again Ascend towards a good time I thought I'd be where you are And there's a stone in your heart And lovers do come apart
