Name: Sheltered
Duration: P00H02M34S
Description: I wrote this song for Stef’s kid Ferre, who can be heard at the end of the track. But since then my little sister got a kid too, Jax, and it did get a whole new meaning to me. It’s about sheltering young kids in this world of ours. Hopefully they’ll do better. They deserve better.

I wrote this song for Stef’s kid Ferre, who can be heard at the end of the track. But since then my little sister got a kid too, Jax, and it did get a whole new meaning to me. It’s about sheltering young kids in this world of ours. Hopefully they’ll do better. They deserve better.

lyrics

So young and full of love,
Unaware of all the dark clouds
Everything’s still new,
Still so much to love and learn
Just keep on smiling,
Your little world’s still safe

HERE YOU ARE NOW
WELCOME TO OUR WORLD
WE’VE MADE A BIG MESS
PLEASE LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES

We’ll build a shield,
Just to keep you safe from harm
Always keep your head up,
Don’t be afraid to fall
One day you’ll break out,
Keep on searching for the light

Here we are now
Standing on the edge of the world
It is all yours
Once you’re ready to take it on

Shed our past and rebuild it all somehow
Shed our past and rebuild our paradise
