I hide behind these walls
So I don’t know at all
What I do not see
Has less chance of hurting me
I might burn a few
Bridges, one or two
Leaving me no need
Of looking behind me
I cover up my ears
So I don’t have to hear
Words spoken true
When spoken to
Close tight both my eyes
Hoping to lose sight
Of the things they do
That I myself do too
Having little doubt
I keep an open mouth
That clearly runs away
With what I have to say
What comes to light
You are bound to find
Through all of this
Sadly, a closed off mind
