I’m putting on my suit of armour
Steeling myself for your goodbye
Fighting not to feel it
Biting my lip so I don’t cry
Telling myself I don’t need you
Holding my head high
Though a heavy heart pulls me down
Today I’ll hush its cry
Promising myself
I’ll somehow be okay
Telling my heart it will live
To love another day
Tightening my boots
Lifting up my shield
Holding back my heartache
Praying the tears won’t yield
Picking up my sword
Though I’ve no fight in me today
For today is the final time
I watch you walk away.
