Stiff Little Fingers human shield

Select language to translate this lyric

How do you propose to live your life in times like these
Growing up surrounded by the fear and hate disease
I believe that we all need protection from the world
And our friends enfold us like a barrier unfurled
I believe in the human shield
I believe in the human shield
People try to use you and abuse you every day
Doesn't seem to matter what you do or what you say
Then you need a friend that you can count on when you're down
Someone who will ward off all the hatred all around
The human shield protects your soul
And keeps you on the ground
The human shield protects your heart
From being ground down
Dreams will all be shattered and your hopes dashed on the ground
As you grow to realize, this world's a real hard town
I believe that we all need protection every day
And our friends will form a shield that works in every way
I believe in the human shield
I believe in the human shield
The human shield protects your soul
And keeps you on the ground
The human shield protects your heart
From being ground down
