I've built this wall around my heart letting nothing in
Never wanting to be hurt so I surround myself in this fortress
Living side by side with fear and the anguish over years
Of being buried by the emotions of my past
I've grown heartless and cold
With no sense of ever feeling again
What is this? What could it be?
Is my once happy heart devoured in sadness
Have I slipped into numbness teetering on madness?
I don't know for this feeling has engulfed my innards
While my outer is a blank canvas of nothingness
Maybe I've grown numb something I never wanna become
But the hurt over the years maybe that's what Ive become.
Numb.
