I act tough Say I'm heartless When I'm just hurt Saying I have no emotion But I am overwhelmed with it I say my soul is black The past has rotted it to nothing I build walls high enough to keep people out But have trapped myself inside Surrounded by the lies I've told to cover up The fact that I am broken Never believing the lies just living with the tragic truth What's behind these walls will ruin anyone
10/14/2016 I keep people out in order to save them But who will save me from the war in my mind
