Sometimes I see the light inside It's brightened many times I thought that life gets easy But the stars don't fade that way You're reaching out for the way Is there something I can't reach? That was done as metaphorical And it's hard to let you in I can't let you in Though I want to try To refrain from the tears I've yet to cry I'll build these walls They keep me safe Even though your love Is right in my face Don't take it wrong It's just how I've been I've lost too much I can't let you in The world goes outside I already know But my path doesn't seem to let me grow Each time I get close I fade away To the ghost of who I want to stay You're breaking through, but not enough I wish love didn't have to be so tough To be so tough I can't let you in Though I wish I could I'd take a chance If I thought I should I'll build these walls They're wearing thin Maybe you're the one Who breaks them in But until then I staywithin Because right now I can't let you in Maybe one day I'll open the door And the fear doesn't weigh me down anymore But tonight I'm still locked in tight Hiding from love, but dying to feel alive I can't let you in Though I wish I could I'd take a chance If I thought I should I'll build these walls They're wearing thin Maybe you're the one Who breaks them in But until then I stay within Because right now I can't let you in
