"Walls Down" by ARK

I wonder what it feels to see a person whose emotional walls have come down. No pretensions. No lies. Nothing but the person's soul.

Of course I can always see human souls 'cause I came from Heaven. But I just can't keep from wondering why society runs with lies. Why does everybody have to hide?


I guess we all basically interact with people who aren't their true selves. Nobody is ever completely honest about who they are. This is what I'm tired of.

But who am I to judge? I have several walls up too. And it would take a lot to break through this durable mental security I've put up. Anyway, I don't mean to break the societal barrier. I can't change how society acts and moves. If lies and masks keep the world running, then I'm gonna have to accept that.

But I would like to meet somebody whose walls are so greatly torn down. I wonder what it would be like to interact with someone who's completely honest with himself? Dev's never honest. He pretends to be cool and everything, but he's well...sort of geeky (But don't tell him I said that).

I wonder what it would feel like to have my walls torn down. How it would feel to be completely honest, at least with a single person. The society doesn't have to know who the true Ark is. But this one person...or three of them...or four...should be able to tell who I am lying to, because he/she/they know how I truly think.

I also want to know how a person who never lies would act in a maze-like society. How can a person who allows himself to be vulnerable, act in a world where everybody pretends to be strong?


I can assure you that a very few people have seen all of my walls down. And I feel good around these people. It feels good to be honest. It feels good to be free for a moment. As it turns out, we are the ones who are caging ourselves in.
