The Shield — текст песни (Sick Of It All)

Lowered my shield, lowered - defenses
happier now feeling - all senses
heighten my soul and my - awereness
isn`t it great being - defendeless
a long time ago i was - protected
the choise was mine and i - selected
the joy and the pain were - connected
lowered my shield, now i`m not protected

I never used to let it down
never used to let it down
i never used to let it down
never used to let it
there`s something i`ve got to see
i never used to let it down
never used to let it down
i never used to let it down
never used to let it
i`ve got to see what`s realy inside of me

Now i understand that emotion
now i undrstand why ther`s commotion
all this time without - a notion
all this time without - devotion
why waste time being - suspicious
come taste life it`s - delicious
expose yourself to the - malicious
expose yourself, they`re - so vicious

All these years / will this shield disappear
and will i stand / a stronger man / no shield in hand
i`ll have to overcome the pain the best that i can
