Scars and Hearts

All these scars and broken hearts

That’s what comes of being open

So I think I’ll lock myself up tight

It’s so hard not to end up caring

More deeply than I guess I should

But that’s a battle I must win

To lose would only end in pain

Seal up tight against the wind

Let no one else find shelter here

Every time I open up

I lose another piece of me

There’s so little left inside

It may not be worth fighting for

But I can’t fall apart just yet

So I’ll hide it all away

And keep what’s left alone and safe
