Text: Clare Maguire. Light After Dark. Shield And Sword.

You and I felt so good to begin with, didn't we?
Well, now it seems there's far too many adverts in between
And we don't speak, so we're left in constant silence
It's haunting me, so I'm ready now to fight this

You have the shield, I'll take the sword
I no longer love you, no longer love you
I'm not afraid of danger in the dark
I no longer love you, no longer love you

You and I aren't working, burning on the bridges now
We're trapped inside, screaming, "Won't somebody get me out?"

You have the shield, I'll take the sword
I no longer love you, no longer love you
I'm not afraid of danger in the dark
I no longer love you, no longer love you

I no longer love you, no longer love you
No longer love you, no longer love you

And we don't speak, so we're left in constant silence
And it's haunting me, so I'm ready now to fight this

You have the shield, I'll take the sword
I no longer love you, no longer love you
I'm not afraid of danger in the dark
I no longer love you, no longer love you

You have the shield, I'll take the sword
I no longer love you, no longer love you
I'm not afraid of danger in the dark
I no longer love you, no longer love you

You and I felt so good to begin with, didn't we?
But now it seems these shields and swords are haunting me
