Taken
Stolen from me
With my guard down
I let it happen

I gave up willingly

As a man
I try to be strong
I carry many burdens
Upon my shoulders they rest

I don't let my guard down
For just anyone
I don't let everyone in
I especially
Don't hand my heart away willingly

For you, I have
No regrets
That is how it should be
You've unchained me

The walls I had built
To protect me from harm
Only left me imprisoned
Yet they crumbled
With your charm

You make me feel
Like anything is possible
Dreams aren't something
Only when you're asleep

Sometimes, they're granted
Once reality and heaven meet
