Not For You

Love, what is that
Is it worth dying for
What you feel within your heart
Well I don't have a heart anymore
There it lies, broken and bleeding
Lying dead on the floor
And the time has come to say
That I don't need you anymore

So build your walls
And I'll build mine
Then we'll see which one
Crumbles away with time
You have your reasons
And I have my beliefs
But now I see
That I'm not what you need

Thanks Morgen. We all have our walls. Every one does crumble with time I think

Hi Dementia,walls are often built because of past hurt wanting to protect ones emotions from being hurt all over again.But love sometimes hurt and if we put up that wall we will be living a lonely,loveless life with love on the outside looking in.cheers M.M

Thanks for the comments. I agree you do have to let love in. You just have to be careful of who you klet in. There are a lot of people out there that feed off of others misery
