I am walking on eggshells
With every step I take
I find it hard to tell
Where to step for them to not break
No matter how hard I try
No matter how carefully I move
They just break sometimes
And the shards are not smooth
They are sharp with lies
Stabbing into my already broken heart
Cutting deep into my thighs
They are tearing me apart.
I want to teach you to walk a little softer
To not hurt yourself
These shells will grow stronger
If you are not by yourself
These shells don't have to be so thin
If we walk on them together
If you release the paranoia and fear within
Moving forward will be so much easier
Please, come walk with me
I can teach you how to walk a little slower
So you have some room to breathe
Because together, our shells are thicker.
