The Shield And The Sword - Clare Maguire

You and I

Felt so good to begin with, didn’t we?

Well now it seems

There’s far too many adverts in between

And we don’t speak

So we’re left in constant silence

And it’s haunting me

So I’m ready now to fight this

You have the shield

I’ll take the sword

I no longer love you

No longer love you

I’m not afraid of

Danger in the dark

I no longer love you

No longer love you

You and I

Aren’t working, burning on the bridges now

We’re trapped inside

Screaming, «Won't somebody get me out?»

You have the shield

I’ll take the sword

I no longer love you

No longer love you

I’m not afraid of

Danger in the dark

I no longer love you

No longer love you

I no longer love you

No longer love you

No longer love you

No longer love you

And we don’t speak

So we’re left in constant silence

And it’s haunting me

So I’m ready now to fight this

You have the shield

I’ll take the sword

I no longer love you

No longer love you

I’m not afraid of

Danger in the dark

I no longer love you

No longer love you

You have the shield

I’ll take the sword

I no longer love you

No longer love you

I’m not afraid of

Danger in the dark

I no longer love you

No longer love you

You and I

Felt so good to begin with, didn’t we?

But now it seems

These shields and swords are haunting me
