Putting Up My Walls
I used to have my walls down for everyone to come in
Anyone who seemed to care, anyone who "loved" me
But then I was used, thrown on the ground and stepped on
Till I was bruised, bleeding, weak and completely paralyzed
And from that day forward, I began to build up very tall walls
around my scarred up heart filled with shards of broken glass
So tall that if anyone were to even attempt and climb over them
That they'd become tired, and their hands full of oozing blisters.
No, I never had the desire to let one person in again to abuse me
The walls that have stood for years have caused my heart to chill
Because I didn't want to allow any ray of sunshine to come upon it
In fear that it would eventually become a horrible haunting darkness
That would cause me to recoil further into deep depressing despair
I'd rather be alone within these tall walls, then to be hurt again
For I believe even if I do find that one who manages to climb over
There will still be an emptiness to follow, no matter how much light
No matter how much warmth, no matter how much wonderful bliss
There will always be a thorn digging into my side, causing much sadness.
So here I choose to remain inside these cold, dark, empty walls
Forever to remain alone in my heart, with no one to hurt me.

I think I know how you feel :c It's like... you let everyone in who seems like they're your friend... but then you realize later that not all of them were sincere. And then it becomes harder to trust new people because you're afraid of that happening again. Is that what you meant? Cuz I totally understand
