Behind These Walls

We fell apart slowly and combusted into flames.

Before I had time to get out of the fire, I saw that look on your face.

And that look gave you away, it showed your apathy towards me.

As you walked away from me, I called your name.

But my screams were drowned out by the flames.

I tried my very best to please you,

To try to numb the pain.

But I found out that I was the one with the deepest cut,

And my scar didn't fade away.

So now while your worries are miles away.

Far away, the wind blows across your pale face.

Remember my name.

Remember my face.

Remember my pain.

Remember the fact that you were the one who walked away.

You walked away when I was paralyzed.

But time goes on, slowly and bitterly.

I learned to take care of myself in a world that shows no mercy.

I learned to mask my emotions.

I slowly built my walls.

With blood and sweat.

And time and effort.

I built my life around these walls, the ultimate barrier.

So when you come back, I'll be ready.

I know that it is wishful thinking that I wish you'll return.

I just want to see the look on your face when you see me,

Your face filled with disdain and pain.

I want to tell you 'Thanks, for all the good times we had.'

But I will make sure to show you that I don't need you.

And I never did and I never will.

So good luck with life.

So long and goodbye.
