In the haunting echoes of heartache, Lennon Stella crafts a tale of resilience and rebirth. Here, we find a protagonist who has been through the emotional wringer, feeling used and discarded by someone who never truly cared. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of transformation from vulnerability to strength. Once lost in the shadows of manipulation, she emerges fortified, having built an impenetrable fortress around her heart. No longer does she whisper his name or let him invade her thoughts; she's cutting her losses and reclaiming her power. This anthem is a powerful declaration of self-preservation and newfound independence, proving that even in the aftermath of betrayal, one can rise stronger than ever before.
Fortress
Lyrics
Why did you call it, what you called it?
You could've called it off
Did you ever feel the way I did, at all?
Probably gets you off
Thinkin' I'm broken
Shadows holdin' me with my fingers crossed
Like I'm in a corner, back against the wall
But I promise I'm not
Up, up, in the madness
You turned a lover to a savage
Think you're addicted to my sadness
No more
You don't get in my brain
You don't fill up the spaces
I don't whisper your name
Now that I've built a fortress
I'll never be the same
So, I'm cutting my losses
I'm not letting you in
Now that I've built a fortress
When you call I ignore it
I built a fortress (mm)
Yeah, I built a fortress
Thought that you meant it
When you spent all those quiet nights on me (mm)
Told me all about the secrets that you keep
I thought you were so deep
So badly wanting somethin'
So I let you keep takin' me
Up, up, in the madness, madness
You don't get in my brain
You don't fill up the spaces
I don't whisper your name
Now that I've built a fortress
I'll never be the same
So I'm cutting my losses
I'm not letting you in
Now that I've built a fortress
When you call I ignore it
I built a fortress (mm)
Yeah, I built a fortress
You, said you did, but you don't give a fuck about us
You, all the words that you don't say speak the loudest
You, said you did, but you don't give a fuck about us
'Bout us, don't say, don't say
You don't get in my brain
You don't fill up the spaces
I don't whisper your name
Now that I've built a fortress
I'll never be the same
So I'm cutting my losses
I'm not letting you in
Now that I've built a fortress
When you call I ignore it
I built a fortress (mm)
Yeah, I built a fortress
When you call I ignore it
I built a fortress (mm, no, no)
Did you ever feel the way I did at all?
