**[Intro]**
Yeah, yeah
I built a fence around my heart
Still you found a way inside
Woah
**[Chorus]**
I put a fence around my heart, don’t come close
Every time I let somebody in, they turn ghost
You said forever, now forever feel like a joke
I’m on the edge, holding on to whatever I know
Fence around my feelings, I don’t let ’em show
Smile for the picture while I’m dying down low
You keep throwing stones, but you already know
Behind this fence, I’m still waiting for you to come home
**[Verse 1]**
Midnight, headlights, driving with no place
Your name in my phone, but I can’t press your name
Too many memories I wish I could erase
Still see your shadow every time I change lanes
I gave you trust, you gave me questions
Turned all my love into a weapon
Now every heartbeat feels defensive
I learned my lesson, learned my lesson
You said you’d stay when the rain came down
Then disappeared when I needed you around
Now I keep my walls so high off the ground
If love comes knocking, I don’t make a sound
**[Pre-Chorus]**
I know these walls can’t save me
But letting you in might break me
I still hear your voice lately
Calling me your baby
**[Chorus]**
I put a fence around my heart, don’t come close
Every time I let somebody in, they turn ghost
You said forever, now forever feel like a joke
I’m on the edge, holding on to whatever I know
Fence around my feelings, I don’t let ’em show
Smile for the picture while I’m dying down low
You keep throwing stones, but you already know
Behind this fence, I’m still waiting for you to come home
**[Verse 2]**
Maybe I’m scared of another goodbye
Maybe that’s why I keep love outside
I tell everybody that I’m doing alright
Then stare at the ceiling almost every night
Your side of the bed still cold as December
I tried moving on, but my heart remembers
Burned every letter, kept all the embers
Some fires die, but some burn forever
Now I’m surrounded by these walls I made
Trying to protect what you already changed
If you came back, would I open the gate?
Or watch you leave while I look away?
**[Bridge]**
If I tear it down, would you stay this time?
Would you hold my heart like I held onto mine?
I don’t need promises dressed up as lies
Just tell me the truth before the last goodbye
**[Final Chorus]**
I put a fence around my heart, don’t come close
Every time I let somebody in, they turn ghost
You said forever, now forever feel like a joke
But part of me still hopes you’re somewhere on this road
Fence around my feelings, but the gate ain’t closed
Maybe one day I’ll finally let somebody know
Under all these scars, there’s a heart made of gold
Behind this fence, I’m just scared to let it go
**[Outro]**
Yeah
Behind this fence
I’m just scared to let it go
Scared to let it go
