Crumbling Wall

Because I've gone through heartbreak,
I don't want to feel the same way again.
It hurts and I don't know if I can lose you now.

When I wait for your reaction, it feels like eternity.
At that moment I ask myself,
"Should I start protecting myself from you?"

Building that wall around my heart,
I tried, but with a delayed reaction from you,
That wall automatically crumbles to the ground.

You're clever, so don't you see the signs?
I feel like you're playing with the boundaries,
To see, if you feel the same at all.

Other girls maybe more straightforward,
But for me, I've never been as straightforward
To you then I have with anyone else.

I'm tired of guessing, I just want to know.
Do I? The answer am I ready for it?
No, just let me live in this moment, forever.

Starting to doubt all the signs,
I feel like you're just getting annoyed with me.
Do you know the true reason behind my actions?

I don't want you to forget who I am,
I don't want to be one of those people,
Who you were with at that time.

Everything comes to an end,
That is how I feel about us.
When it ends, I'll be alone again.

To build that wall for my heart, to defend myself;
An impossible task for me, at this moment
But for my sake, it must happen for time is running out.
