There are these things I do
They're automatic
Like a robot
A reflex that saves me from getting hurt
This is my defense against the world
You say some thing painful
I react without thinking
This is how you get hurt
I can’t plan these things
They just happen
You fire back
And now its a war zone
There are words flying through the air before I can stop them
You reach out and slam your fist into my face
You don't mean it
You look horrified, and say your sorry, you reach out to touch me
I don't forgive you
I reach back and hit you as hard as I can
You look stunned
As if you never expected that from me
I'll give you everything I've got.
Until there is nothing left of you
Or until there is nothing left to protect me
Either way we are both going down
I refuse to die alone
Never put down your defenses.
