The Armour You Own

(album: Dead Letter Circus - 2007)

Don't look away
This is now the moment that you know that you have waited for wait no more
This is your time right here
No one can believe something all the time
You fall out
Someday you'll fall back in
But it's coming for you now
With your hope burning in its hand
The armour you've grown

You will not fear them, breathing inside of the armour you own
You will not see them all waiting in line for the armour you grow
Is the armour you own

Brace, this is just the game
Find your shelter in your calm and take comfort in your harm
Don't look away
This is just the moment that you know that you create
So wait no more in this feeling

You will not see them all waiting in line for the armour you grow
Is the armour you own

You will reach
You will fall down
Every time you fail you will change
You will break open this light
And from it you will know the way
I won't leave
You will step out from the tower that has kept you safe
Home will be where you are now

Know that this place must end
Know that this temple I built you'll shed
You will awake to your consciousness
Stand up and know now that you are the one who shapes
But know when to give if the heart dictates
Show all the empathy that you own with each moment
Keep nothing safe, you will grow from harm
The further you fall you return to own
Know that you'll always be chasing something
And it's ok

You will reach
You will fall down
Every time you fail you will change
You will break open this light
And from it you will know the way
I won't leave
You will step out from the tower that has kept you safe
Home will be where you are now
