Only living beat
April 14, 2012
If i take down my wall..they'll think im vulnerable.
If i open my heart a lil bit..they'll attach til death.
If they see me cry..they'll think im weak.
If they catch me thinkin..they'll think im a freak.
They locked my mouth shut so i cant speak.
Stitched my eyes closed so i cant see.
Drained my worthless tears.
Found my fragile warn heart.
Cut out the only living beat in me.
