Story telling through song

Shield is an original song composed by 16/17 year old singer-songwriters Ellen O'Mahony and Carla Ryan from Dunboyne, Co. Meath

Lyrics: Dry your eyes my friend The danger's passed you're safe and sound There's only so long you can build it up before the walls fall down

Chorus: so let me be your shield I can be your armour Nothing more can hurt you now as long as I am here

So listen to my words keep spirits high and demons low I am here and I will always be when you say we go I know we'll win this war so have no fear and have no doubt And if you hear the voices let me know I'll drown them out

Chorus: So let me be your shield I can be your armour Nothing more can hurt you now as long as I am here

Bridge: so throw away your white flag and give up on looking back cos tomorrow is all thats in my mind The sun is out the skies are clear Full of hope and rid of fear from inside

Chorus: So let me be your shield I can be your armour Nothing more can hurt you now as long as I am here
