You ain't coming in, with your smooth words and charm
I've learned to keep my guard up, to protect from harm
My heart has been deceived before, by those who seem sincere
But now, I've built a fortress, and you're not welcome here
You see, I have a distrustful heart
It's been broken and shattered, torn apart
I used to be naive, believed in every word
But now, I've learned to be cautious, and it may seem absurd
I've seen the ugly side of love, the lies and deceit
I've felt the pain of betrayal, it's not something I'll repeat
So forgive me if I don't let you in
But my distrustful heart won't let you win
You may think you're different, that you'll prove me wrong
But I've heard that same story, sung in the same old song
I've learned to listen to my intuition
For it has saved me from heartache and destruction
My walls may seem impenetrable, my heart may seem cold
But it's all a defense mechanism, to protect my soul
I may push you away, with my words and my doubt
But it's only because I've been hurt, I'm still trying to figure it out
You ain't coming in, no matter how hard you try
I'll keep my guard up, for my own sake, I'll never lie
But if you're truly genuine, and your intentions are pure
Maybe, just maybe, my distrustful heart will open its door
Until then, I'll keep my guard up high
For I've learned the hard way, that love can be a lie
You may think I'm just being difficult, it's true, I may be
But you ain't coming in, not until you prove yourself to me.
