walls

I was never a fan of relationships
Trusting someone with your heart just didn't seem wise  
Most people don't even care about their own self’s
So, I think that relationships are full of drama and lies

No strings attached is better I thought
It was just enough to fill that empty void
No cheating, lying or jealousy
Nothing too problematic or paranoid

And I never let my heart got touched in the process
I kept it behind a secret wall
Because some times the unexpected can happen
And love could come out of the blue to call

And I thought the walls I that I have build
Was high enough to keep the love away
And I always kept my feet on the ground
And was never a player going out to play

The wall was strongly built with a lot of thoughts
And I felt it was a job well done and it was satisfying
But when a man says that love won’t get to him someday
You can bet your money that he is lying

and I didn’t want to be a liar
a liar, liar pants on fire
so, no way anyone was going to get to the heart
it was well protected with cement walls and barbwire

All those years of keeping my heart caged
But today my security system seems to have failed me
Someone made her way in unnoticed
And she set my heart free

She found a way to climb over my walls
Instead of just breaking in
She snuck into my guarded heart carrying her love
And when I saw her, she looked at me and grin

And she was so sure of herself
I could see her confidence showing
And she knows that she had me beat
When the smile on my face starts glowing

Butterflies were in the air
And her kisses like wine
That carry me away in a whirlwind
Wrapped up in her ball of twine

no one else could’ve got to me before
but now she cut the rope that I’ve tied
Without a plan to be rescued
She trapped herself inside

but just like I expected from love
it didn’t fail to let me down
the minute I planted a rose in the garden
as expected, it was ripped from the grown

scaling my walls was just another adventure
she never intended to give me more
while she got me greedy
she was only here to explore
 
And then she found a way to leave
she never planned to stay
But she left a part of her in me
Before she went away

She corrupts my life again
And I have to rebuild the walls from anew
I tried to delete many memories of her
but could only manage a few

Today I walk alone again
Bare feet standing on the grass
I close my eyes when I think of her
And still, the vision of her refuses to pass

So here I am, once again standing on the wall
 still standing guarded so no one can get in again
I know that’s its losing game
But still, try to find a way to win
