Like a hermit - unfounded

solitary but proud

I was hiding - behind fences

shutting myself out



crossed my arm - disarmed

loss of self-defence

wouldn't fight off - haunting memories

crimes without a sense



closed my eyes - blind folded

images of hell

caught inside a vicious circle

retired in my shell



shut my mouth - lips sealed

there's no need to tell

wouldn't share with you the secret

that could break the spell



shellshocked - no escape from dreaming

shellshocked - there's no escape from dreaming
