David Wilcox (canadian) Invisible Shield Lyrics

Invisible Shield Lyrics

Must be more to this 

than I'm seeing now

Or is it my eyes 

can't tell why or how

Not exactly clear 

something isn't
right

Fell down on my head

Changing day to night



I
need an invisible shield

Mama never told me it would be this way

Stone or paper, concrete or real

To keep from going wild

I need
an invisible shield

Mama never said there would be days like this

I
need an invisible shield

To keep myself alive



Don't hear what
you say 

Don't care what you think

There you go again

Living
on the brink

Musn't get upset

That's the way things are

haven't seen 'em yet 

Wonder who they are

I need an invisible
shield

Mama never told me it would last this long

I need an
invisible shield to keep me going on

I need an invisible shield to hide
something don't know what it is

I need an invisible shield

To save
my soul

I really do need it

Can't make it on my own

I need a
shelter 

Or a ride home



What's that you say

I think I
hear you talking

Mmmm mmmm

Birth, death, infinity

Twinkle of
an eye

I know you understand it

Don't ask me why

I need an
invisible shield

Mama never talked about a woman like you

I need an
invisible shield to see me through

I need an invisible shield to stop me
sinking all the way down

I need an invisible shield to turn things
around

I really do need it

Can't make it on my own

I need a
shelter 

Or a ride home
