David Wilcox (Canadian) - Invisible Shield lyrics

Must be more to this

than I'm seeing now

Or is it my eyes

can't tell why or how

Not exactly clear

something isn't right

Fell down on my head

Changing day to night

I need an invisible shield

Mama never told me it would be this way

Stone or paper, concrete or real

To keep from going wild

I need an invisible shield

Mama never said there would be days like this

I need an invisible shield

To keep myself alive

Don't hear what you say

Don't care what you think

There you go again

Living on the brink

Musn't get upset

That's the way things are

haven't seen 'em yet

Wonder who they are

I need an invisible shield

Mama never told me it would last this long

I need an invisible shield to keep me going on

I need an invisible shield to hide something don't know what it is

I need an invisible shield

To save my soul

I really do need it

Can't make it on my own

I need a shelter

Or a ride home

What's that you say

I think I hear you talking

Mmmm mmmm

Birth, death, infinity

Twinkle of an eye

I know you understand it

Don't ask me why

I need an invisible shield

Mama never talked about a woman like you

I need an invisible shield to see me through

I need an invisible shield to stop me sinking all the way down

I need an invisible shield to turn things around

I really do need it

Can't make it on my own

I need a shelter

Or a ride home
