Cold wind through broken stone. Footsteps in an empty hall. You are the man in the castle, You are the man behind the walls. You say this place will keep you safe, You say the world outside is cold. CASTLE MAN, NEVER STEPS OUT, CASTLE MAN, SHUTTING LIFE OUT, CASTLE MAN, ALONE BY DESIGN. You say you never needed friends, You say your voice is all you need. You claim the silence keeps you calm, But even stone will crack and bleed. CASTLE MAN, NEVER STEPS OUT, CASTLE MAN, SHUTTING LIFE OUT, CASTLE MAN, ALONE BY DESIGN. Day by day you feel stranger, Day by day your walls grow thick. You watch the sky through narrow slits, Your kingdom shrinking, brick by brick. CASTLE MAN, NEVER STEPS OUT, CASTLE MAN, SHUTTING LIFE OUT, CASTLE MAN, ALONE BY DESIGN. If you want, I’ll pull the towers down with you. If you want, I’ll tear the walls apart. If you want, we’ll let the daylight in Before it hardens your heart. CASTLE MAN, STEP INTO LIGHT, CASTLE MAN, CUT THROUGH YOUR NIGHT, CASTLE MAN, I’M STILL RIGHT HERE, CASTLE MAN, TEAR DOWN THE STONE.
