Shellshocked Lyrics

Like a hermit - unfounded
solitary but proud
I was hiding - behind fences
shutting myself out
crossed my arm - disarmed
loss of self-defence
wouldn't fight off - haunting memories
crimes without a sense
closed my eyes - blind folded
images of hell
caught inside a vicious circle

retired in my shell

shut my mouth - lips sealed
there's no need to tell
wouldn't share with you the secret
that could break the spell
shellshocked - no escape from dreaming
shellshocked - there's no escape from dreaming
