Defender Lyrics - The Echoing Green

Everything is calm 

Yet something feels wrong 

Things are falling on the path you walk along 

You can feel the attack 

Weighing up on your back 

Suffocating 

Down ever so strong 

Can you turn your eye 

and take a look at the sky 

To find a place where you can 

Put these lies behind 

It's a win or lose 

So look for what you can choose 

As you move through 

The corners of your 

Mind, to find 

Somehow you don't remember 

And so you cry 

Out for your heart's 

Defender 

You made a fist 

Now it's a Judas kiss 

Leading you into the 

gates of Babylon 

A redemptive wish 

A plea of forgiveness 

is all you need 

To shed disgrace and 

Dry your eyes 

And think of the love so tender 

That opened the sky 

and rained down the hope forever 

If you ever find 

that somehow you can't remember 

A reason to try 

Reach for your heart's... 

Defender
