JMN Through the Night - Shield

Lying awake as the minutes' pass
Optimistic about the future
Forgetting the past
I think about what my heroes have taught me
The strength and the drive that gets me through the hard days
Some of us out here
Fighting back blood sweat and tears
It feels like it's been going on a hundred years
I can see the light at the end of the tunnel
But you're blocking the way

We can be strong
We can be brave
But we all need a shield and we need it right away
It's the only way
To ensure we stay safe
We can be strong
We can be brave
But we all need a shield and we need it right away
It's the only way
To ensure we stay safe

Superheroes need their superpowers
Because they know that the villain can strike at any hour
Conquering obstacles left and right
They'd be lucky to get home by the end of the night
And you're making waves
Throwing life jackets in our face
All this hard work going to waste
It's just another uphill challenge
If we keep going at this pace

We can be strong
We can be brave
But we all need a shield and we need it right away
It's the only way
To ensure we stay safe
We can be strong
We can be brave
But we all need a shield and we need it right away
It's the only way
To ensure we stay safe

We can be strong
We can be brave
But we all need a shield and we need it right away
It's the only way
To ensure we stay safe
So many wrongs
That got in our way
It's been too long
There's no time for your games
We can't look away
We can't pretend like it's all okay
We can be strong
We can be brave
But we all need a shield and we need it right away
We all need a shield and we need it right away
We all need a shield and we need it right away

We can be strong
We can be brave
But we all need a shield and we need it right away
It's the only way
To ensure we stay safe
We can be strong
We can be brave
But we all need a shield and we need it right away
It's the only way
To ensure we stay safe
