Fragile Walls
 
I act tough and strong
But deep down I'm not
I hid this side of me for so long
But you broke down my fragile walls
 
Baka, hentai, idiot, wimp
Just some of the words I've called you
Yet you still reached out to me
Not trying to hurt me
Not trying to use me
Just trying to be my friend
 
I once thought I loved someone else
He was everything I wanted
But nothing I could have
I realise now how foolish I've been
Pretending to be someone I'm not
You've broke down my fragile walls
And touched my broken soul
 
You tried to comfort me when I needed it
But I just pushed you away
I thought I didn't need anybody
But I was wrong
I was hiding from the world
But inside I was just a scared little girl
You're the only one to have broken down my fragile walls
And after Instrumentality I realised
That you'd done much more than that
 
You put your life on line for others
Without asking for anything in return
You've sacrificed so much for us
And haven't thought anything of it
 
You've broken down my fragile walls
And you've done so much more
You befriended Rei, which was near to impossible
You turned Misato into a mother, which was in itself a miracle
You've affected everyone who's met you
But you've also affected me
In used to think you were pathetic
A spineless wimp
You've shown me otherwise
And now I know the true you
 
For you see, I now know something I've denied for so long
And I've slowly grown in love with you
I still think you're a baka
But now you're my baka Shinji
And you'll be mine forever
Until the day we die
