Built a wall around my heart Hoping it would protect what mattered most But people are funny Always crashing down things they shouldn't Tearing down things they don't understand Til you see that what lies behind that crumbled debris Is the person I used to be
I'm falling to pieces Nothing more than a shattered wineglass Edges glittering around the room We can pick up the pieces But you can never undo what has been done
We live in a society that only wants perfection But we're all flawed It's only human
Love me for who I am Not for what I can give you Not for how I look on your arm And maybe Just *maybe We'll be able to say we've found who we're supposed to be
Those walls don't have to stay up forever So pick the pieces up off the ground Life goes on One step at a time, we'll make it through
