Close The Gates

I gave my heart to a stranger

Who painted it black without asking me

Might not even see the shades I mean

When you look from afar

Everything is gone, I'm hopelessly lost

I'm ready to give up it all without fighting

I see smiling people

I close the gates and hide for a day

Let all the talk just flow away

I find the silence touching me

Like a frozen winter flower

I'm standing and walking

Now I know I am

Finally proud to be me

I am a treasure you no longer need

I see you now whenever I close my eyes

Like a cold white lie, colorless shades of the night

I've lost my trust in the human kindness

How can you live with no heart

With bright blue eyes, I raise the sail

And all my fears will fade away

I've had the bitter along the sweet

The taste of being unwanted

I'm shaking and holding

Back the tears of relief

Hoping no one will see

You are a burden I no longer need

I see you now whenever I close my eyes

Like a cold white lie, colorless shades of the night

I've lost my trust in the human kindness

How can you live with no heart

You opened my eyes

You showed me the way

I'm closer to heaven

Now and every day

And you think I obey you

But I am my own woman

You will not just take me

You cannot erase me

You lived in a sweet illusion

"I'm yours forever"

Never again open arms for you

Closed the gates

Behind me and walked away

I see you now whenever I close my eyes

Like a cold white lie, colorless shades of the night

I've lost my trust in the human kindness

How can you live when you

Stole my trust in human kindness

How can you live with no heart
