for all life's hurt and pain, it can be so easy to lose your way
your skin gets tough, your heart grows hard, and you surround yourself with walls
you see the world through jaded eyes, with cynic views, and cloudy skies
with each new hurt you learn to hide the person you truly are inside
In night's embrace, the tears will fall. You scream, you cry, you punch the wall
You guard yourself more carefully You learn to love more sparingly
you wear your masks, you act the part, but no one really knows your heart
all the pain you hold it dear, it makes you cold, it causes fear
You hide within the shadows, you begin lurking in the dark
the night becomes your only friend, you shun the light, let coldness in
people around you start to see and wonder what has become of thee
protected from life's hurt and pain, you are also far from lover's lane
