Walls

I built these walls around my heart
To keep the feelings out
But as I fought them all away
I forgot what life's about

The pain inside was burning
I wasn't feeling free
The world outside was beating
On the inside of me

I've been damned
by the curse of caring
I stand alone
But they keep staring

Just let me be
I feel so scarred
So empty
So alone

But now I'm broken
All by myself
My walls are never breaking
They keep me trapped, reclused, alone

I built these walls around my heart
To keep the feelings out
But they also keep me trapped inside
From all that life's about.
