Things in my head
I can’t speak out
Writing out these words
Is therapy for me
No one to talk to
No one to call
No body out there cares
So I built up a wall
My own little fortress
Built of all these thoughts
Strong are these walls
Hiding in my box
In my head i’m hiding
In a fortress in the sky
In the world i’m living
The life of a normal guy
Nothing indifferent
It’s just not me
So i hide in this fortress
Where it’s not you i see
For if i do
These walls will start to fall
But each time you leave
They are rebuilt
The more time you spend near
The more of my fortress falls
So now i don’t look
Even though you’re right here
Sitting next to me
I just hide in my tower near
Up so far away
Away from your eyes
With a window overlooking the sea
I wish i could bring you up to see
Please stay far away from me
So i can enjoy my sea
Stay away from me
And these walls will stay
They will protect me
And do no harm
Leave me, leave my castle
My kingdom
And all of me behind
