How do you propose to live your life in times like these
Growing up surrounded by the fear and hate disease
I believe that we all need protection from the world
And our friends enfold us like a barrier unfurled
I believe in the human shield
I believe in the human shield
People try to use you and abuse you every day
Doesn't seem to matter what you do or what you say
Then you need a friend that you can count on when you're down
Someone who will ward off all the hatred all around
(Chorus:)
The human shield protects your soul
And keeps you on the ground
The human shield protects your heart from being ground down
Dreams will all be shattered and your hopes dashed on the ground
As you grow to realise, this world's a real hard town
I believe that we all need protection every day
And our friends will form a shield that works in every way
I believe in the human shield
I believe in the human shield
(Chorus)
Growing up surrounded by the fear and hate disease
I believe that we all need protection from the world
And our friends enfold us like a barrier unfurled
I believe in the human shield
I believe in the human shield
People try to use you and abuse you every day
Doesn't seem to matter what you do or what you say
Then you need a friend that you can count on when you're down
Someone who will ward off all the hatred all around
(Chorus:)
The human shield protects your soul
And keeps you on the ground
The human shield protects your heart from being ground down
Dreams will all be shattered and your hopes dashed on the ground
As you grow to realise, this world's a real hard town
I believe that we all need protection every day
And our friends will form a shield that works in every way
I believe in the human shield
I believe in the human shield
(Chorus)

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
