I lock myself away for a few reasons

One is so I don't have to feel anymore pain

Another is to keep my heart from the people who hurt me

One more is so I don't go insane

I'm already somewhat crazy

No need to make it any worse

Trying to keep myself from getting that far

Because if it goes any further I'll need a nurse

I lock myself away to keep my emotions in check

No need to snap at the ones who care

I try not to let rage get the best of me

Because to lose anyone else, that pain I cannot bear

I find it better to be in pain by myself

Than to tell anyone about it

No need for anyone to feel sorry for me

Even though when I do I feel better by a little bit

There are many reasons I lock myself away

No need to tell them all to you

Because you can't change it, nor can you fix it

No matter what you do
