My Heart

When it comes to you
I have to close my heart
Not because I don't love you
But because I can't talk to you.

When it comes to you
I have to close my heart
Not because I don't want to share it
But because it feels like it has no value to you.

When it comes to you
I have to close my heart
Not because I don't feel anything
But because I have to put on a brave face for you.

When it comes to you
I have to close my heart
Not because I want to
But because if I don't you'll walk away from me.

When it comes to you
My heart has come to believe
I mean nothing to you
I'm just someone you know
