You say you know me
You will always claim to understand my being
But how can a found soul know one that is lost
A soul that is no longer free to love
But is not stopped by any bars or chains
Not even a door stands in the way of my freedom
Simply a tall impenetrable wall that I built
With seemingly a mind of its own
Stretching and growing and changing
Each person comes at me thinking from a different angle
Thinking they can get inside and learn me better than I know myself
So how come no one has
Why does the wall go past the earth's very core
And stretch to planets yet discovered
Why so thick nothing can drill through or break it
See sometimes there's an exception
Someone finds a weakness, cracks the wall
They can see me
They can't see everything through their little peephole
But they see enough
I'm vulnerable, lying in their hands
I think I can trust these people
The ones who find their way to my heart
Who break my walls
But they're why others can't get through
For they continue to get through until they've almost got me bare
But then they get scared
So they run, leaving me to fix my wall
Make it stronger
To hide my soul better
Maybe if no one could see what was on the other side
Then no one would ever leave
So I'll fix it
Make it thicker
Use a stronger material
Increase it's height
No one will get though I think
But someone like you can
You find your way through
And you make your way through a little bit more every time we speak
And trust me I want to run
Because I fear you'll be just like the rest
But I can't make myself, you've burst through the pocket of hope
That lies dormant within the stone and soil even the very air around my wall
And I can't look away from you
You have me falling for you, my wall becoming weaker for you
While the others are still trying to get through the same one they were before
But I know I'll be crushed
I've a hidden fence
That will hide what I need with it
So that when you get through
I can be almost true
I'm ready to never have you
So break it down
My wall is simple brick
The cement old and weak
Break through so that I can be destroyed
