I build a wall of insecurities
That may never be crossed
Because if the wall is weakened
My feelings get tumbled and tossed
I never mean to put up guard
But I can’t help it sometimes
I’m afraid of getting hurt
When people start crossing lines
I never wanted to come off mean
I just put up my wall
I only end up hating myself
I never wanted to hurt you at all
I refuse to let anyone close
I’ll only push you away
If I ever seem bitter to you
It’s only because I’m afraid
My insecurities protect me
Or so it may seem to be
Because when my wall comes crumbling down
Nobodies hurt but me
