Walls of Silence

I gave my heart once, gave it all,
Believed in love, but I took the fall.
Now every time someone comes my way,
I freeze inside, don’t know what to say.
I’m scared of opening up again,
Afraid of being hurt, afraid of the pain.
I don’t want to trust, don’t want to feel,
Cause love has shown me it’s never real.
I don’t want to meet someone new,
If they’re just gonna break me in two.
I’ve had enough of those broken nights,
Of crying alone under city lights.
I’m scared of love, I don’t want to try,
Cause every time, it ends with goodbye.
I don’t want to hurt like I did before,
I don’t want to feel that pain anymore.
They tell me love is worth the fight,
But I’m too tired to try and make it right.
They smile and speak like they understand,
But they don’t know the mess I’ve had in my hands.
I build my walls, I lock my door,
I won’t let anyone in anymore.
Cause every time I fall, I fall too deep,
And I just end up alone, feeling weak.
I don’t want to meet someone new,
If they’re just gonna break me in two.
I’ve had enough of those broken nights,
Of crying alone under city lights.
I’m scared of love, I don’t want to try,
Cause every time, it ends with goodbye.
I don’t want to hurt like I did before,
I don’t want to feel that pain anymore.
I’m done with love, I’ve had enough,
Cause all it brings is the heartache stuff.
I don’t need the hurt, I’ll be okay,
I’ll guard my heart, and walk away
