Iskwirel - heart a shield, mind a sword. Lyrics

If I could put a dime on how many times we've tried to work things out
I'd have a couple or way too many to count for this item up on the shelf
My damage is like tuition and now I have debts to pay
My credit score would be too obscure for me to even say

Traversing some of the darkest caves and it echos with my doubts
Climbing up from this ladder you've made masquerade of yourself
Stepping down from my pile of mistakes couldn't forgive myself
And I hope there's another path to take than what I call my own

I need more advantages on learning to protect my heart
Cause my defenses are falling in from right out under myself
I had the strongest infatuation for too long to want
If I knew first love was this hard then I didn't wanna fall at all

Plant a tree for how many times I've spent seconds over you
Save parts of the Earth stable oxygen for us to feel alright
If fear breeds strength how strong would I be for standing on the ground
I've brought myself right off my feet too many times to count

Traversing some of the darkest caves and it echos with my doubts
Climbing up from this ladder you've made masquerade of yourself
Stepping down from my pile of mistakes couldn't forgive myself
And I hope there's another path to take than what I call my own

This gave my heart a shield
And my mind a sword
The stages of grief
That I followed from your loss
Were too hard to process
Expedite my mind
Flashbang my memory
To a better time
My heart has a shield
And my mind a sword
Moving too fast for life
To catch up
Could erase mistakes
Fix what I've done
My battles continue
Let the fight go on

I need more advantages on learning to protect my heart
Cause my defenses are falling in from right out under myself
I had the strongest infatuation for too long to want
If I knew first love was this hard then I didn't wanna fall at all

I need more advantages on learning to protect my heart
Cause my defenses are falling in from right out under myself
I had the strongest infatuation for too long to want
If I knew first love was this hard then I didn't wanna fall at all
