There is a stone cage Built slowly, over years Broken down again and again Foul hands digging into its carcass Rending, tearing, destroying To get at the sweet nectar of my soul Blood dripping from hands I love you i'm sorry I love you Walls laced with iron and steel Less malleable, less breakable Build and build and build He says he wouldn't hurt me Such savagery is beyond him But I know his type The ones with the blue eyes And the soft lips and the warm hands Inside they're cold cold cold Getting close enough to kiss Before the torture starts My walls will not be molded For him to climb over and into me I'll bleed him first if it means He is too tired to hold me for i will never be harmed again

Armour your heart, child
There is a stone cage Built slowly, over years Broken down again and again Foul hands digging into its carcass Rending, tearing, destroying To get at the sweet nectar of my soul Blood dripping from hands I love you i'm sorry I love you Walls laced with iron and steel Less malleable, less breakable Build and build and build He says he wouldn't hurt me Such savagery is beyond him But I know his type The ones with the blue eyes And the soft lips and the warm hands Inside they're cold cold cold Getting close enough to kiss Before the torture starts My walls will not be molded For him to climb over and into me I'll bleed him first if it means He is too tired to hold me for i will never be harmed again
