They're higher than I thought,
they're wide and thick as well.
I've been hidden by them
like a turtle in it's shell.

And now they're trapping me,
I feel them closing in.
Every time I fight them,
they cause my head to spin.

Are they keeping me safe
or making me their slave?
Am I really protected,
or just suffocated?

I want to destroy them,
I need them to be gone.
But I know it'll be hard
and that it will take long,
'cause I've built them myself
and made sure they were strong.
