The Closed Soul

    YOU STAND THERE AND STARE,
WITH YOUR EYES SHUT TIGHT.
    NOT SCARED OF WHAT YOU WILL SEE,
BUT SCARED OF WHAT YOU MIGHT.

    YOU WANT TO REACH FOR COMFORT,
FOR THE FEARS YOU'VE LOCKED INSIDE.
    BUT, THE CHANCE IS JUST TOO RISKY,
THERE ARE REASONS FOR WHAT YOU HIDE.

    NOT LOOKING FOR THE DOOR,
IT'S NO USE ANYWAY...
    YOU WALK AROUND AND PLAY ALONG,
THAT'S THE "SAFE" WAY TO STAY.

    THEN ONE DAY SOMEONE CAME,
AND LOOKED INTO YOUR SOUL.
    THEY TRIED TOO HARD TO LEAD THE WAY,
YOU FOUGHT THEM FOR CONTROL.

    THEY WANTED YOU TO SEE THE TRUTH,
YOU WOULDN'T LET THEM NEAR.
    BUT, DUE TO LOVE AND PATIENCE,
THEY'LL WAIT FOR YOU TO HEAR.
