walls

all in all, i just want the walls to reach down n wrap themselves around me.
touch me and make me feel a home i lost years ago, trying to be free.
i'm just a man who has done more than his share of time, this i believe.
i'm in need of a this house to bring the warmth i want to retrieve.
somewhere along the way i grew up into a man that forgot how to live.
a loner with a deadbolt to keep the world out of reach because i had nothing to give.
but i know my worth now as i learned a little something of self in my time.
i just wish these damn walls could talk and tell me something kind.
i always feel like i've lost everything that there is to lose.
when i have more than most in my situation that has not a clue.
last place in my case is the best way to explain how my ways have given up.
i'm just wanting my heart to give in without a fight and truly love.
without the mind taking over and causing so much confusion.
i believe i've become to real for my own good with no solution.
the heart can't remember how to feel anymore and i'm trying not to fade.
i got something good going, and yet she's right, i don't know how to love without pain.
what am i to do as my world has come to a broken dream hiding from being hurt.
excuse after excuse i speak of what love is, in truth but in lust i fail and burn.
i want to be released from my prison i've created so long ago.
bending these bars as these walls wish me a farewell and i begin to grow.
i feel so trapped inside, turning on me i can't break a tear in silence.
and i wonder is there anyone out there like me who feels the violence.
tapping past the brink of exposure i'm consumed by wanting it to just be something.
wanting to be felt and accepted as i stand and feel a lent hand helping.
pulling me as i'm rescued into the sunshine, releasing all the wasted years.
who's it going to be to come hear the secrets i scream in whispering fears?
come soon and give this place of resting a meaning like it's never had.
love and receive all that's been built up waiting on something worth reaching a grab.
i got 34 years of melting in no ones arms and i'm a fool.
so use to being empty i fell into myself and woke in a slobbering drool.
now wanting what meant nothing to me till this point in my life's walk.
i just want a small itty bitty little piece of the pie before these walls can begin to talk.
closing me in for their own to be claimed.
before i wind up alone lonely and going insane.
