There is something very scary About sharing yourself Breaking down your walls Letting someone in Letting them see the brokenness of your soul Tearing away that barrier Between protecting yourself and lying The worst part though Is when you let them in and they take a look around And don't like what they see So they leave They leave you exposed All your flaws out in the open So you have to build your wall again And wait for someone to want in You just hope they won't leave too

Walls
There is something very scary About sharing yourself Breaking down your walls Letting someone in Letting them see the brokenness of your soul Tearing away that barrier Between protecting yourself and lying The worst part though Is when you let them in and they take a look around And don't like what they see So they leave They leave you exposed All your flaws out in the open So you have to build your wall again And wait for someone to want in You just hope they won't leave too
