Voices shouting in my mind
Each one screaming "it's alright, you're fine for tonight"
The love that was promised was never felt
One lie after another, shredding me deeper
Reaching my core and breaking me down
And they all wonder why I do nothing but frown
The days pass then weeks and months
Nothing seems to get better, darkness closing
Then you came along, shattering the walls around
I smiled, I began heal
You became a shield
Protecting me from the seen and unseen
You promised love and I felt it surrounding
Finally, for once a truth that was needed
In that moment, everything would be alright
