LYRICS 
Verse I
There are scars underneath this armor
Some fresh and some are old

A puncture wound  from mockery
A gash from rejection's cruel hold

I still have bruises from past flames
And scabs from bitter losses

A history of their names
On my skin as spots and slashes oh~


Once or twice they coax me out
I am plagued with nagging doubts

Refrain
I cannot risk another wound
I fear this time time I won't survive
I trade the feel of gentle touch
To stay numb but still alive~ 

Chorus
Then there you stand


We'll steal away to distant fields 
(far off rivers, higher hills)
Somewhere far from bloodshed 
(a meadow teemed with daffodils) 

Verse 2 
It'll be just the two of us
And we can be soft
No need for armor, shields or weapons
Our worries far aloft

I'll take off the metal glove
Feels your palms; each whorl, each line
You'll put down the jaded sword
And our fingers intertwine

Then there you stand amidst the chaos
No helmet on but sword at hand 
I never expected to be disarmed by another warrior in this land~ 

Another warrior in this land~

Repeat refrain and chorus

Outro
Oh~
Then there you stand, Oh~
