Текст We Are The Emergency – Broken Shield

I remember when I was younger
When the world was torn from me
So it goes
I let it go

Let’s revisit a time when my thoughts collapsed
When my mind went blank and my armour weighed us down
Sinking into the battlefield
Sinking into my new home
So tell me when those lives fought back
As their innocence held, I felt our worlds collide
Sinking behind a broken shield
Sinking into my new home

And the husbands cried for mothers
Whose sons had died as martyrs
In the moment I saw
Just what I’d become
So now I choose to wander
Through the dark and silent winter
For the moment I shall stay away

Let’s revisit a time when my thoughts collapsed
When my mind went blank and my armour weighed us down
Sinking into the battlefield
Sinking into my new home
So tell me when those lives fought back
As their innocence held, I felt our worlds collide
Sinking behind a broken shield

I’m lost, I’m fallen
My heart lies frozen to the earth
But you saw through my life

And just when it all seemed too much
You turned to me and said
You said to me that

We’re not so
We’re not so lost
We’re not so
We’re not so lost
Repeat
