Your Key Judgement
I hang my head
As freezing cold insults are projected onto skin worn out by scars
How could you have ever thought you want me?
I'm locked in my own body
Like my joints are only accessible by skeleton key
Arms over my face liked a shield
Who could smile in this kind of cage?
I didn't even feel like I was in my own skin
It's slip stitched
Doubled with iron thread
No one is getting in
I love you
But you don't love me
You're getting too close and I think it's time for you to leave
