Armour

She took everything she owned

threw it out in the rain

walked away from that life she won't go back again

had enough of people's lies enough of their blame

she made a promise to herself she won't get fooled again

Don't know why things come to me and why they disappear

I only know that living changed when she got here

I reached out my hand wiped the rain from her face

the look she gave me stopped me cold held me in my place

When I look into her eyes growing wild

what I see is such a wounded child

No matter what you're hiding

what you want to keep inside you

I am hiding too

and we'll take a step somehow

lay down your armour now

and I'll come to you

I know a fall is coming but it hasn't happened yet

can't believe what I keep inside and what I can't forget

the sun paints the evening sky and then it's gone

I can't say I can save you but I swear I won't leave you alone

Every night I listen to the silence in your heart

I never want to see you that torn apart

No matter what you're hiding

what you want to keep inside you

I've been hiding too

and we'll take a step somehow

lay down your armour now

I'll come to you

come to you

come to you
