“I took on a adittude to where I felt it was everyone for themselves and if I didn't protect myself, my heart, and everything I stood for then who would? I taught myself to not care about no one els's feelings but mines and if anyone got hurt by what I said or did to them then oh well, because no one would care if it was me But then I met you and just for a second I thought that maybe I should knock down the wall I had built around myself, and my heart…And at first it was lovely I felt so happy and like everythig would always be okay and that I'd never be hurt again, and betrayed. And when I started to feel comfortable with everything and start openning up to people more, caring, and trusting others YOU ruined it all. You dogged me, made me cry, and made me feel the way I felt back then. And now I'm back to the old me...Idgaf about anyone els or their feelings no more. I'm tired of being hurt!”
