• There is nothing I won't do,
    To protect the life in you.
    Now they are all closing in,
    I'll bring them to their knees from within...

    *chorus*
    THEY WON'T LAY A HAND ON YOU!
    I won't let them take you,
    I won't let them break you!
    I'll take them all on without yield,
    And use my body as a shield!
    I'll take every attack!
    Deliver all the pain back!
    All of my wounds will surley heal,
    So use my body as a shield!

    I feel their hot breath on my skin,
    I turn and and yell, fear held within.
    Their hate for you is all too real,
    But before the end I'll make them kneel...

    *(chorus)*

    I dodge and match them blow for blow,
    I can't afford to be this slow.
    My shield of flesh is your best chance,
    I'll have to lead you through this dance.

    *(chorus)*

    I've taken a blade to my side,
    When you screamed for me I nearly cried.
    It's just my flesh, it will return,
    So you'd live on I'd gladly burn.

    *(chorus)*

    My blood flows free, their numbers fall,
    It's a wonder I can walk at all.
    You're untouched, unharmed, calling to me,
    I'll die before they get past me.

    *(chorus)*

    What I feel for you I can't reveal,
    It would burn a trust, my honor's seal.
    Could you even feel the same things of me?
    A weapon? A shield? Are these what you see?

    *(chorus)*

    You call to me from beyond their gaze,
    You speak of our most cherished days.
    You tell me that should my life end,
    You'd lose more than a shield and more than a friend.

    *(chorus)*

    With renewed courage I battle on,
    My being more than just your pawn.
    I will finish this, for you my ward,
    Knowing that you see me as more than a sword.

    *(chorus)*

    Now there is nothing left to say...
    I fought, I won, they've gone away...
    I lie here broken feeling fear...
    Will you please lie with me here?

    I've given everything for you...
    I didn't let them take you...
    I didn't let them break you...
    I took them all on without yield,
    And I used my body as a shield...
    I took every attack,
    And delivered all the pain back...
    I hope my wounds will one day heal,
    So I can still be your shield...
