The Guardian

I push through the crowd

Without looking back

To leave you behind

Took all that I had

And maybe I'm wrong

I might be sorry

But what kind of fool

Would hope for a change

Then write a new word

On a page that is stained

And ruined by a lie

You shouldn't have told me

I'm the guardian

I am the sole protecter

Of a heart that's been abused

I wont let love do me in again

I cant just run to the light

Of a fire and jump in

Risk a poison kiss just to have

My thirst unquenched again

Let love do me in

I swallow the urge

To call out your name

The need crashes in

I brace for the wave

And pray it will pass

Not take me under

Cause I'm the guardian

I am the last defence for

My weakened heart

That still wants you

I wont let love do me in again

I cant just run to the light

Of a fire and jump in

Risk a poison kiss just to have

My thirst unquenched again

Let love do me in

I'm the guardian

I am the sole protector

Of a heart that's been abused

I wont let love

Risk a poison kiss just to have

My thirst unquenched again

Let love do me in
