Guarding Shell

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Ma belle Can you understand? My shell is guarding me here where I stand 'Cause in my past there was just no solution I dwell in my secret land I have a place in a fortress, so grand I need to move now with some resolution Am I on my guard? Am I afraid to be touched? Where's the trust when your life is taking you down And I try so hard I will face what I must I've been lost in my mind, and circling around Oh, in my guarding shell I haven't fared so well [Verse 2] Ma belle Can you understand? My shell is guarding me here wherе I stand 'Cause in my past there was just no solution I dwеll in my secret land I have a place in a fortress, so grand I need to move now with some resolution Can I trust your eyes? Can you be honest with me? In the night someone left me here with a scar Tell me no more lies Some day I need to be free Rest assured I'll be waiting under a star Oh, in my guarding shell I haven't fared so well
