Shield of Life

When nobody accepted me
you took my pain away.
When everything started to fall
you lead me through every day.

A little kiss or a big hug
isn't enough for what you do.
You never let me down for
you always help me through.

I can cry my eyes out,
and pull out my hair.
I can be crazy but
you'll always be there.

My heart can't beat or
help me live at all.
If you're not in my life
I will always fall.

When my life was apart
and no one saw me cry.
You held out your hand
and my tears were dry.

When my heart was black,
and my skin was blue.
You kissed my lips and
it was unbelievably true.

You'll always be my soul,
and you're my knight.
My escape from bleakness
and my shield of life.
