Lyrics
Verse
My mask is cemented on my skin
And I know you so desperately want to get in
But it takes a lot of chipping away
It’s not something I can just take off for today
Verse
You really gotta get to know me
And even then, is it really me?
I’m not sure what you really mean
When you say you want vulnerability
Pre-chorus
From where I’m standing, you’re one to talk
Mr. Sympathy, your actions don't walk the walk
Chorus
My wall is built stronger than you think
You can try, but it’s hard to shrink
With everything my wall represents
It’s strong as stone, or even cement
Verse
Every layer tells a story
Every crack’s a bit of glory
You wanna see what’s underneath
But you gotta prove you can believe
Pre-chorus
Your words are easy, but your hands don’t match
I’m standing here, but I’m not your catch
Chorus
My wall is built stronger than you think
You can try, but it’s hard to shrink
With everything my wall represents
It’s strong as stone, or even cement
Bridge
I’m not letting just anyone inside
It’s taken time to build this life
So if you’re real, you’ll stay and wait
But if not, don’t knock, don’t complicate
Chorus
My wall is built stronger than you think
You can try, but it’s hard to shrink
With everything my wall represents
It’s strong as stone, or even cement
