When life gets too hard and emotions get over me,
I hide under my formidable shell
Noone can harm me or take me away,
I can hide from this resemblance of hell
When life takes the blanket of blackness and wraps it,
Enclosing me in a corner of depression
I duck under my veil of plastered innocence,
And I'm filled with calmer emotions
When life takes the upper hand and locks me in,
Into the valves of negativity I go,
I hide under the covers, behind the scenes,
My feelings they'll never know
When life hands you misfortune on a silver plate,
And expects you to consume it with tranquility
I hide under my turtle shell, away from the madness,
The darkest spectrum they'll never see
When life gives you bad news and expects you to take it,
Like it's not a big deal at all
I hide under my vulnerability, behind that closed door,
I pretend to embrace the fall
When life suspends you at the brink of madness,
Leaving you broken in tears,
Fall apart behind that turtle shell and noone will know,
Of your ailments and worries, your fears.
