Oh, but she can't No, she won't She's spent so long Building them Keeping the darkness locked up Stowing it away from ever seeing the light No hope If she lets him in, it was all for nothing For love Is not worth the risk of letting them out Not now, not ever No one can save her from what she's become All her life, alone That's all she's known Is all she'll ever know

The Walls
Oh, but she can't No, she won't She's spent so long Building them Keeping the darkness locked up Stowing it away from ever seeing the light No hope If she lets him in, it was all for nothing For love Is not worth the risk of letting them out Not now, not ever No one can save her from what she's become All her life, alone That's all she's known Is all she'll ever know
