If I was unbroken
Heart still intact
Maybe this could work
But it's bruised
Bent
And cracked

It's surely closed off
With a lock on the door
That's the only way to protect
What's hidden in it's core

Will reveal a tiny part in time
But my world I dare not show
Not a single step allowed
Into what's harbored down below

After all I have suffered
I won't make the same mistake
If I don't display my soul
There's nothing for anyone to take
