[Arrangement: Steady acoustic guitar with warm bass and heavy percussion. Harmony vocals answer the lead throughout.]<\/p>\n
[Intro]
\nBuilt to withstand
\n(The passing years)
\nStanding firm
\n(Through hopes and fears)<\/p>\n
Holding strong
\n(Against the strain)
\nSheltering life
\n(Through sun and rain)<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\nEncasement
\n(Holding it together)
\nNo replacement
\n(In stormy weather)<\/p>\n
Encasement
\n(Standing the test)
\nKeeping what’s inside
\n(Safe and at rest)<\/p>\n
[Verse 1]
\nA frame won’t leak
\n(A place to belong)
\nHelping the weak
\n(To stay strong)<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\nEncasement
\n(Holding it together)
\nNo replacement
\n(In stormy weather)<\/p>\n
Encasement
\n(Standing the test)
\nKeeping what’s inside
\n(Safe and at rest)<\/p>\n
[Arrangement: Bass becomes more prominent. Harmony vocals widen.]<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nThrough the pressure
\n(It remains)
\nThrough the seasons
\n(And changing rains)<\/p>\n
Through the wind
\n(And through the snow)
\nStill protecting
\n(What we know)<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\nA seed in the soil
\n(A bird in a nest)
\nA heart in a chest
\n(Protected best)<\/p>\n
[Arrangement: Drums build. Acoustic guitar strums more fully.]<\/p>\n
[Bridge]<\/p>\n
[Arrangement: Full band enters. Strongest section of the song.]<\/p>\n
[Final Chorus]
\nEncasement
\n(Holding it together)
\nNo replacement
\n(In stormy weather)<\/p>\n
Encasement
\n(Standing the test)
\nKeeping what’s inside
\n(Safe and at rest)<\/p>\n
Encasement
\n(Strong and true)
\nHolding together
\n(Me and you)<\/p>\n
[Arrangement: Instruments gradually soften. Acoustic guitar and harmonies remain.]<\/p>\n
[Outro]
\nWhen the winds rise
\n(And skies turn gray)
\nA little protection
\n(Goes a long way)<\/p>\n
Encasement
\n(Holding it together)
\nNo replacement
\n(In stormy weather)<\/p>\n
