(Verse 1)
I built my walls to protect my homeland
Stone by stone, so no one reached the command
Too close to the fault lines that were stressed
Where love once lived, but is now oppressed
Every promise turned to smoke,
Now we’re wearing the mourning cloak
So I drew my borders deep and intensified
A fortress where my ghosts reside.
(Pre-Chorus)
I’ve sealed the gates because of you
Now no one will ever get through
(Chorus)
This heart’s a Maginot Line,
No more possibilities of war crimes
Built from endless sleepless nights
I’m my own white knight
You can keep trying to impede
But love’s a war I’ll never need.
I’m fortified by my own design
Behind the Maginot Line.
(Verse 2)
You say it’s time to reunite,
But I’ve seen the dawn betray the night.
Every tender word’s a white lie,
Every touch is a battle cry.
I don’t trust your battle fight,
You hint at the need for requite.
I’ve learned that love’s a losing game,
Where every victory ends inflames
(Pre-Chorus)
So I raise the walls again,
My heart is wearing thin.
(Chorus)
This heart’s a Maginot Line,
No more possibilities of war crimes
Built from endless sleepless nights
I’m my own white knight
You can keep trying to impede
But love’s a war I’ll never need.
I’m fortified by my own design
Behind the Maginot Line.
(Bridge)
Maybe someday it’ll crumble down
By then, it’ll be a ghost town
But not tonight, I protect my own
Not with the unknown
(Chorus)
This heart’s a Maginot Line,
No more possibilities of war crimes
Built from endless sleepless nights
I’m my own white knight
You can keep trying to impede
But love’s a war I’ll never need.
I’m fortified by my own design
Behind the Maginot Line.
