vulnerable. Lyrics

These days

Everybody walks around with shields

High enough to touch the clouds

We've built them overtime

After suffering from the damage

That the past has created

After all the heartbreaks and all the harsh words

You've carried along with you and your best decision

Was to build a fortress

But a day will come when you're walking

Around with your shields held to the sun

And realize that those sun rays hit you

Your heart should be in exile

At the fact that your shield has been compromised

But all you're left with is a wide smile

Tracing through the shield reveals

That it's still intact

But just not to everybody anymore

Why doesn't it burn like it used to

Why doesn't it hurt anymore

And that day has come where

There's that one person that

Can slip through the cracks

One person who can make you beam

When you never thought that

You'd get your smile back

That person you can call home

And for the first time

In a very very long time

Your heart is left unguarded and you don't react

Because this person makes you feel safe

When you're open and left vulnerable

They read and understand all your words

And even the ones that are left unspoken

You've been opened

And for the very first time

In a very very long time

You're not mad at that
