It's the thorns that grew out my skin
Most times I never know the mess I'm in
Till my heart is under another's shoe
Times when neither my heart or mind can tell me what to do
Easier to give my body rather than my mind
Quicker to settle for anyone, only for a short matter of time
Faster to fall so deep in love
Without grasping the content of;
Knowing and understanding you
But from my point of view
Trying to listen but my mind isn't here
Words fallen on a deaf ear
Emotions not felt on my prickled-skin or within
But this was the habitat I wanted to live in
Don't get too close
Because you'll only end up hurting, the most
Don't ask me why
Why I hide my honesty and bring forth a lie
Why I hide myself and give you a decoy
Why I bring forth hurt while you give me joy
Why I do things to bring forth pain
Then afterwards can't maintain
