Defender - 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…
