| When you grow to be someone’s sister |
| If you can overcome the barriers |
| You might find yourselves to be sharing an incredible power |
| If you can light up each other |
| That’s the necessary secret |
| If you really do need it |
| You can have your own hidden world together |
| But let’s go back to the beach |
| Let’s live in a dream |
| You can pretend to be you |
| I can pretend to be me |
| But we don’t need to act like we’re ourselves |
| We don’t need to be anything |
| I’ve been thinking wrong forever |
| I don’t have to be anything |
| When my mind is overwhelmed |
| When my body won’t move |
| You’ve been a shield over me |
| I want to be a shield over you |
| When my mind shuts down |
| In the most unbelievable pain |
| You’ve been a shield over me |
| I just want the strength to do the same |
| But my body’s not me |
| It won’t hold my shape |
| You can’t even see my armour |
| But it’s shimmering like water |
| And it’s heavy like the ocean |
| And yeah it holds me down but |
| I still have enough power |
| And I can still lift it up on my shoulders |
| But my body’s not me |
| It won’t hold my shape |
| You can’t even see my armour |
| But it’s shimmering like water |
| And it’s heavy like the ocean |
| And yeah it drags me down but |
| I still have enough power |
| And I can still lift it up on my shoulders |
| When my mind is overwhelmed |
| When my body won’t move |
| You’ve been a shield over me |
| I want to be a shield over you |
| When my mind shuts down |
| In the most incredible pain |
| You’ve been a shield over me |
| I just need the strength to do the same |
| But my body’s not me |
| It won’t hold my shape |
| I know that I’m something other |
| My body’s not me |
| There’s no fucking way this cage can last forever |
