Shielded...

From the dark corner I see your face

The beauty of your face lightens up my day

But you don't know the feelings I feel inside

I feel, you don't

But I never tried because

My shield is up but i'll let it down for you

But I won't let you throw my heart in circles

But please know that my love is for real

I never chased your love

But I'm afraid

Afraid of getting crushed to pieces

But how will I know if these walls are up?

And should they be with you?

From the dark corner I see your smile

Most beautiful thing I ever saw

The sweetness of your voice reminds me

That I believe I've chosen an angel

I feel, you don't

But I never tried because

From the dark corner I see your being

A person that is just as scared as me but won't admit

The same tension that empowers our souls

Is the same tension that will force havoc and spin us into...

Yet another dark corner to watch each other and see what move is to be made

Who has built up the strength to move about this dark corner

I feel, you don't

But I never tried because

I've followed the roads that I've traveled alone

The lonely nights that I dreamed

It just takes that one risk, that one chance

But is it only worth it to me

Or are you comfortable in that dark corner

Apparently I am wasting my time

Because I feel, you don't...
