Shelter

I manufacture
Brick by brick,
Fueled by fear of consequences,
A glass wall
Blind to my fate
I master the steps
Decorating the mask with the right forms
Striving meticulously
Sculpting my house of cards

But then you take away my shield
What if I'm left alone to bleed
You say I've tangled myself in my web
All I need to do is be myself

Sanded the edges Polished the surface
Dressed up in my chest of
Pipe dreams, illusion, confusion
Missing what's going on about

Terrified of dying of the light
Neglecting the Oracle inside
Striving meticulously
Sculpting my house of cards

But then you take away my shield
What if I'm left alone to bleed
You say I've tangled myself in my web
All I need to do is be myself
But then you take away my shield
What if I'm left alone to bleed
You say I've tangled myself in my web
All I need to do is be myself

But then you take away my shield
What if I'm left alone to bleed
You say I've tangled myself in my web
All I need to do is be myself
But then you take away my shield
What if I'm left alone to bleed
You say I've tangled myself in my web
All I need to do is be myself
