She built a wall, a fortress so high
That keeps her a prisoner of her own mind
So on days she couldn't glimpse the sun
Please don't tell her just to get out and get about,
Because darling, I assure you
She doesn't know how to escape
This lonely castle she built,
Out of her own tears, cuts, and howl of anguish
Where hidden doors are called happiness
And keys are called Prozac
Or sometimes the usual
"It's all in your mind"
