Scared to love, to feel, to care.
To just let go and know he's there.
Take down the wall I built so high,
Scared to live yet scared to die.

Expectant for loss yet ever hopeful for gain.
Don't want to feel numb but don't want to feel pain.
Craving the warmth of a human touch,
Yet safe is the loner, for loss is too much.

My feet trudge the path of the weary and lost.
The ones who have loved and realised the cost.
The ones who were chosen yet then torn apart,
Left only with sorrow and torn bleeding heart.
