Lyrics

I've kept my guard up.
I am a fortress tall and strong, with walls I never bothered to tear down.
But then, you showed up.
You didn't care about the rain that fell so cold and slowly off our backs.

And I thought someone like you would never find me,
that Hollywood endings would never come my way.
You're living proof that prayers are sometimes answered,
but it's been a long time coming I must say.

Oh, please. Take this. The key to my heart.
Come when you like and tear the whole place apart.
I need help cleaning the last tenet's mess.
It's been long abandoned, I feel I must confess.

Oh, please. Take this. The key to my heart.
Today is a good day for forever to start.
Close up the chapter and let's start anew from the part when you said "I love you".

I have been haunted by every ghost I've ever known.
They want what we both know they cannot have.
But then, you showed up.
You sent my blackened clouds away, my pain no longer wearing down my soul.

And I thought I was a stranger in a strange land,
that I'd forever walk this dusty road alone.
Now, you hold me tight at night when I wake up screaming and I know this lost boy's found his home.

Oh, please. Take this. The key to my heart.
Come when you like and tear the whole place apart.
I need help cleaning the last tenet's mess.
It's been long abandoned, I feel I must confess.

Oh, please. Take this. The key to my heart.
Today is a good day for forever to start.
Close up the chapter and let's start anew from the part when you said "I love you".
