shells for...

better to hold till a better day
hide the head till no ones home
sneak to the fridge in latest hour
hie on back to darkened room
to weep these tears and woe is me
for this is my reward, what i need
to agree that life is hell
a chance to cry for me
wasn't her fault, all was mine
yet now i cry for we
while a distant part rejoices
a feeling i got what i deserved
for not holding her closer
so i hide my head in deepest shame
rejoicing for this chance at pain
living life behind my walls
constructed for just this cause
happy to feel in need
for this room i made for me
merrily i shut out the world
behind these tears i cry for she
for though the world may be an oyster
im just so pleased
to be within
my shell
