I used to think
It was best to keep everything in
•
Keep the walls up high
Protect yourself at all costs
•
Don't let the rest of the world
Know what's really inside
•
But is that really life
A life worth living
•
Or is it just a sheltered existence
Where you never know how much is out there
•
Then you came along
And changed it all
•
My walls started to thin
And we're no longer so tall
•
Each time my walls shrank
Yours grew thicker and taller
•
But I just can't keep it in
I have to share exactly what's inside
•
To leave the words unspoken
Does no one any good
•
So I'll share how I feel
And hope you still call me a friend
•
Because in the end
I want you to know what's real
•
Just in case tomorrow never comes
