Medal Shield Lyrics

When I look up from this piano

I see fifty thousand stars

All shining brighter than

A supernova cluster to my eyes

And then hung above me

So everyone can see

Each one shows the years

Of all the blood, sweat and tears

And I know you deserve more than

An old medal shield

You deserve the world

Is it strange to be proud

Of your mother, is that allowed?

Do I care anyhow?

If I sailed across the Atlantic

In a little paddle boat

Would you have trust in me enough

To know I'd make it safely home?

Can you have faith in me too?

Well I know that I do

Each stroke shows the years

Of all the blood, sweat and tears

And if I rule the world

I'll come back in a couple years

And I will give you the world

Is it strange to be proud

Of your mother, is that allowed?

But when have I ever cared

Of what you thought you know?

It's calling me

It's over, really, now
