We Are All Kingdoms

I have withdrawn inside the walls surrounding me
As for the keys, you gave them back to me
This kingdom falls a bit too easily
These hallowed halls protect and comfort me
But, in the end they only serve to sentence me
I ought to tear them down
We are all kingdoms, but we can't ever conquer the fear of being kings
Yet in the shiftless night we see what we're all meant to be
and it's never the thing that you thought it would be
It's more of a whisper than brash revelry
It's more like the heartbeat you feel inside me
I've seen some things, I thought I'd never see
Tried to forget, but everything reminded me
This mind recalls a bit too easily
These tattered walls collecting dust so patiently
But, in the end they give all that they have for me
I might keep them around
We are all kingdoms, but we can't ever conquer the fear of being kings
Yet in the shiftless night we see what we're all meant to be
and it's never the thing that you thought it would be
It's more of a whisper than brash revelry
It's more like the heartbeat you feel inside me
