Shield my heart so when shots are next fired I’ll be protected
Not letting anything penetrate, bouncing off walls I’ve erected
Making me bulletproof, yes immune to feelings of life’s deceit
Blocking the deceptive weapons disguised with emotions heat

Shattered and broken I can’t allow anymore it’s to excruciating
Emotions will hold you tight in its grip being so captivating
A cruel “take no prisoners” type of war where no one ever wins
Leaving you confused wondering why, and a pain from within

Make a harder me, ready for any standoff, block all of those emotions
Do away with what is called caring ways and all the devotion
I need that shield when no one in life believes in the truth
When nothing else helps from being left open, make me bullet proof

I surrender under this ink to be marked out of existence
The hollow point of guilt, bullet proof had no resistance
Caressed the trigger then opened fire, my conscious hit me fast
Bulletproof, our ink now blends together found a peace at last
