walls

behind my walls
i might be free
my path, my life, my choice
behind my walls
i can be me
my own, my will, my voice
behind my walls
i’m safe of all
of hate, of hurt, of noise

behind these walls
built on my lies
love’s merely and old toy
these very walls
built for my heart
save less than they destroy
these icy walls
my fears have built
stand strong agains all joy

but joke’s on me
now i can see
what i tried to avoid
when my walls melt
i can be free
i can escape the void
when my walls fall
i can be me
safe to be here to be
safe to be here to be
