Shining Armor

[Verse 1]
Sun says, "Good morning again
It's time to start your day"
Shield and sword are there by the door
But that is just your way

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You take a deep breath
As you take the first step just outside
Helmet in place and no one sees your face
It's safety first and don't ask why

[Verse 2]
With armored feet you walk down the street
Suspicion in your eyes
Everyone that you meet you think could be
The enemy in disguise

[Pre-Chorus 2]
It's heavy to hold
But the weight makes you bold in your mind
But your confidence, glass, and it's not made to last
In your defense, no risk is wise

[Chorus]
But fear does
More harm
So lay down your
Shining armor

[Verse 3]
As evening falls, your fortress calls
You home before too late
When dark sets in, it gets under your skin
So you hide behind your gate

[Pre-Chorus 3]
You wonder alone
Through this castle you own, still scared
Of a breach to your wall, the first step and it falls
Always afraid you're unprepared

[Chorus]
But fear does
More harm
So lay down
Your shining armor
