Brief Shield Songtext
von Ought

Over and done, place I′d run to
Deepest calm and tranquility
Brief shield in front of me
Windowpane shuttering
Be my knight

I'll be your lady in waiting
Hold my hand
I′ll be your someday
The shadow on the land, it creeps on patient
The ugly years of violent men, too creep on
Peel for the feel of it
Peel for the warmth it brings
Peel to
Oh my
Could it be?
Brief shield in front of me
Windowpane shuttering


Peel my arm
Or keep pulling me softly
Hold my heart
I'll let the world run by

Peace of mine, peace of mine
Peace of mind
Walking in the woods
I fear my clothes are not sufficiently bright
For peace of mind
For peace of mind

Telephone line
And the queen of swords
In the veins of places
A telephone line
And the diamonds
Elevated people dying

Never would've done it
But this very way
Briefest shield on your shoulder


Never would′ve done it
But this very way
Briefest shield I can muster
Powerful mark on a brilliant mind
A million little pieces flying

Never would′ve done it
But this very way
Briefest shield on your shoulder
