Human Shield

Human Shield - Stiff Little Fingers

How do you propose to live your life

In times like these

Growing up surrounded by the fear

And hate disease

I believe that we all need protection

From the world

And our friends enfold us

Like a barrier unfurled

I believe in the human shield

I believe in the human shield

People try to use you

And abuse you every day

Doesn't seem to matter

What you do or what you say

Then you need a friend

That you can count on when you're down

Someone who will ward off

All the hatred all around

I believe in the human shield

I believe in the human shield

The human shield protects your soul

And keeps you on the ground

The human shield protects your heart

From being ground down

Ground down

Dreams will all be shattered

And your hopes dashed on the ground

As you grow to realize

This world's a real hard town

I believe that

We all need protection every day

And our friends will form a shield

That works in every way

I believe in the human shield

I believe in the human shield

I believe in the human shield

I believe in the human shield
