I don't want to know your ways
Tell me sweet lies
Test how well I know your face

Blind me by the darkness
Let it take me in
The darkness, it keeps me safe
I don't want to be let in

So shut all my blinds
Don't tell me your secrets
Lie to me, baby
I promise it's better this way

Keep me in the dark
I don't want to know your ways

I find it interesting that you are asking someone to keep up their walls. Perhaps you are being ironic or sarcastic, or expressing your anger towards this person. Whichever way it falls... nice poem.

i completely get it. basically it is coming to a realization that once everything starts to come out it's like it's all ruined..it's no longer fun once the "honey moon" stage is over and you start to see the real person underneath..but one day you will want to see all of someone, or they will want to see all of you and will be willing to accept you for you..eventually you have to let someone in...i feel like maybe it's you holding the walls up and maybe you have been hurt enough that you just can't seem to let down your walls in fear of being hurt again..maybe..i don't know..thats just my take.
