those feelings soaring through your skin
leave them where they are
stop trying to protect yourself
you won't get very far
that little voice inside your head
the whisper in your heart
scream out loud leave me be
don't let them tear you apart
there's no point in having emotions
nobody cares what you feel
so shove them back where they came from
because none of them are real
stop stepping on your tiptoes
nobody cares how lightly you treed
no matter how hard you try to feel
you'll always hurt someone in the end
so pack up that caring piece of your soul
and send it as far away as you can
because whatever emotions you may feel
nobody else will care to stand
they'll drag your bleeding heart through dirt
and leave your lifeless soul
no matter whatever you do
the ability to feel will never make you whole
protect yourself from everyone else
and lock your feelings away
because anything is better than feeling
the pain from your heart every day
whether it's love or hate or even envy
stop what you're feeling throw it away
nobody will protect your heart
nobody else feels anyway
