I feel so timid and afraid
I live behind a brick wall
It shields me from harm
And cushions my falls
After the rape nightmare
After the pain
After the sleep deprivation
The bricks helped me to breathe again
I am happy were I live
Inside I feel secure
Trust the genuine
Only they are getting less and fewer
I took two bricks out today
And had a little look see
You were on the other side
Smiling back at me
As each day passes
I take another brick away
Today I let you kiss me
And told you my name
Tomorrow I'll ask about your life
And let you see my face
Maybe let you touch me
In an conservative place
Today I stepped outside
And entered your world
You made love to me
I felt vulnerable I felt like a little girl
You showed me things about you
Then u wanted to see mine
The wall started to crumble
I was running out of time
I love you beck
Are you in love with me?
"You're the reason I smile now"
"Why are you crying baby"
Run away
That's what I did
Put the bricks up
And that's were I hid
I should have know better
I let it begin
I may be crazy in love
But I can't let you in
