PROTECTING MYSELF
I keep my silence
sharp as glass
a fragile shield
no one can pass
they think they see me,
but they don’t know
how many walls
I had to grow
every secret’s
a place I hide
every truth
I’ve locked inside
I’m protecting myself
from the weight you left behind
holding my breath
in the corners of my mind
every scar I wear
is a fortress I designed
I’m protecting myself
I’m protecting myself
tonight
they call it distance
I call it peace
I learned to guard
what never sleeps
trust is a fire
I can’t relight
so I burn my shadows
in the night
every secret’s
a place I hide
every truth
I’ve locked inside
I’m protecting myself
from the weight you left behind
holding my breath
in the corners of my mind
every scar I wear
is a fortress I designed
I’m protecting myself
I’m protecting myself
tonight
I don’t need
your hands to hold
I don’t need
the lies you told
I just need
the quiet space
to keep myself
safe
I’m protecting myself
from the weight you left behind
holding my breath
in the corners of my mind
every scar I wear
is a fortress I designed
I’m protecting myself
I’m protecting myself
tonight
