I was in the sun, so proud and strong
It didn't take long for the clouds to grey
And the rain to break my shield
Oh help me stand!
It was the lightning that cut my heal
Hold me in the wind, my friend!
It's time to let my hair down again
I've been the prisoner of winter
I've never made a sound!
But I'm not
Holding my breath now
I will lift my head, to the early sun
I will stand on edge and I will shout
"I am a man of faith, love and hate!
Try and break me, try and break me now!"
I'll be where you can't find me
Standing still in a field. (wolves behind me)
Oh! Please just leave me be
I have a feeling I won't be seen
Quiet just for a little bit more
We'll be the stones on the shore
Calm and silent, so proud and strong
Silent and calm, oh, so proud and strong
Let's go home today
Back to where the wind
Will always sway our way
I will lift my head, to the early sun
I will stand on edge and I will shout
"I am a man of faith, love and hate!
Try and break me, try and break me now!"
Quiet just for a little bit more
