Lock yourself up.
Lock yourself up tight.
And don’t give yourself a fright.

Hold your heart in your hands,
Hold it tight and rap it in bows, and bands.

Stay secret lock yourself away,  
Away from the world you’ll stay, from all its painful rays.

It’s not that I’m anti-social; I’m just preventing myself from getting hurt, by the things outside that hurt the most.
