Citadel

Anna Nalick · Wreck Of The Day (Expanded Edition) [2006]

I'm sitting on a citadel

Contemplating life

Making a point to waste my time

I'm walking on clouds of white



[Chorus]

What if I fall, what if I don't

What if I never make it home

What if I bleed, what if I break

And I find that I can't take

The city below the citadel

Holding my own hand

Yeah, the city below



And I'm breaking on the balcony

Breaking window panes

I'm killing the pain of broken hearts

I'm walking on clouds, walking on stars



[Chorus]

What if I fall, what if I don't

What if I never make it home

What if I bleed, what if I break

And I find that I can't take

The city below the citadel

Holding my own hand



I'm holding on to something

That's keeping me from jumping

So afraid to go it alone

And holding up this fortress

With imaginary forces

Longing for a life down below



[Chorus]

What if I fall, what if I don't

What if I never make it home

What if I bleed, what if I break

And I find that I can't take

The city below the citadel

Holding my own hand



Yeah, the city below the citadel

Holding my own hand

Yeah, the city below the citadel

Holding my own hand
