Cool Rush Song

“Armor And Sword”

The snakes and arrows a child is heir to are enough to leave a thousand cuts
We build our defenses, a place of safety and leave the darker places unexplored

Sometimes the fortress is too strong or the love is too weak
What should have been our armor becomes a sharp and angry sword

Our better natures seek elevation a refuge for the coming night
No one gets to their heaven without a fight, no one

We hold beliefs as a consolation a way to take us out of ourselves
Meditation or medication, a comfort or a promised reward

Sometimes the spirit is too strong or the flesh is too weak
Sometimes the need is just too great for the solace we seek
The suit of shining armor becomes a keen and bloody sword

No one gets to their heaven without a fight
A refuge for the coming night, a future of eternal light
No one gets to their heaven without a fight, no one

Confused alarms of struggle and flight, blood is drained of color
By the flashes of artillery light, no one gets to their heaven without a fight
The battle flags are flown at the feet of a god unknown

No one gets to their heaven, heaven
No one gets to their heaven without a fight

Sometimes the damage is too great or the will is too weak
What should have been our armor becomes a sharp and burning sword

No one gets to their heaven without a fight

A refuge for the coming night, a future of eternal light

No one gets to their heaven without a fight, no one

No one gets to their heaven without a fight
