Shield

How do I take down this shield
that's stopping me
from feeling
thats stopping me
from letting you in completely.

Im scared to feel again
I have to break through
or this will go nowhere
I have to break through
and let my emotions come through.

Everything has been blocked
and all I have left is a smile.
But I need to know that I can feel again
Or i'll never whats real.

Help me to feel pain,
help me to feel you.

I can see it all
but im shielded
behind my own army
its been built
through all the tears
its been built
through growing years.

take me down,
defeat me.

and let me love again
