PhemieC - Human Shield lyrics

I run outside before you
Making holes for you to walk through
Like a child following footprints in the snow

You are my foundation, and beside you I'm
A mountain, I am fortified
And I can only grow

And that's not all

Haven't you, a man of science
Ever wondered why I try so hard
To make you feel so secure?

Haven't you, with all your cleverness
Devised the reason why
I missed no hit and dodged no bullet
Can't you see why I go through it?

I want to be your human shield
Be your cover in the field
Be your strength when you have none
Be your comfort when you are done
Be the walls you live inside
Be the hole where you can hide
Be the safe in which you're sealed
I want to be your human shield
One I was withdrawn, but that
Loner now is gone oh
How'd I stay so long in
Such a place without you?

Once I was so strong but now to be alone
Feels wrong when I am invincible around you

Haven't you, a man of science
Ever wondered why I try so hard
To make you feel so secure?

Haven't you, with all your cleverness
Devised the reason why I missed no
Hit and held no rancor?

Haven't you felt so at ease
While safe inside my company?
See I am at my best as your bulletproof vest

I am your residence, your willing shade
The room in which
Your bed is made, your host
Your home, your hive
Your cave oh can't you see
How brave you make me?

I want to be your human shield
Be your cover in the field
Be your strength when you have none
Be your comfort when you are done
Be the walls you live inside
Be the hole where you can hide
Be the safe in which you're sealed
I want to be your human shield
