They'll stay locked up
until I decide
to unlock the door
that keeps them inside.
I am the one that holds the key
and no one can get anything out of me.
Sometimes it opens and I peek outside
I slam it back shut, it is safer to hide
My feelings concealed within my private retreat
sealed up secure behind the concrete,
that covers my soul and keeps it safe from harm
Your words of kindness set off an alarm.
I suppress the urge to open my heart
to tear down these walls, rip them apart
But I can't anyway, I've created a cell
you can't get in
and I can't get out of this Hell.
