Songtexte Shield - Girls Rituals

When you grow to be someone's sister
If you can overcome the barriers
You might find yourselves to be sharing an incredible power
If you can light up each other
That's the necessary secret
If you really do need it
You can have your own hidden world together

But let's go back to the beach
Let's live in a dream
You can pretend to be you
I can pretend to be me
But we don't need to act like we're ourselves
We don't need to be anything
I've been thinking wrong forever
I don't have to be anything

When my mind is overwhelmed
When my body won't move
You've been a shield over me
I want to be a shield over you
When my mind shuts down
In the most unbelievable pain
You've been a shield over me
I just want the strength to do the same

But my body's not me
It won't hold my shape
You can't even see my armour
But it's shimmering like water
And it's heavy like the ocean
And yeah it holds me down but
I still have enough power
And I can still lift it up on my shoulders

But my body's not me
It won't hold my shape
You can't even see my armour
But it's shimmering like water
And it's heavy like the ocean
And yeah it drags me down but
I still have enough power
And I can still lift it up on my shoulders

When my mind is overwhelmed
When my body won't move
You've been a shield over me
I want to be a shield over you
When my mind shuts down
In the most incredible pain
You've been a shield over me
I just want the strength to do the same

But my body's not me
It won't hold my shape
I know that I'm something other
My body's not me
There's no fucking way this cage can last forever
