Beyond the boundaries of your city's lights,
|
Stand the heroes waiting for your cries.
|
So many times you did not bring this on yourself,
|
When that moment finally comes,
|
I'll be there to help.
|
|
On that day when you need your brothers and sisters to care,
|
I'll be right here.
|
Citizen soldiers holding the light for the ones that we guide from the dark of despair.
|
Standing on guard for the ones that we sheltered,
|
We'll always be ready because we will always be there.
|
|
When there are people crying in the streets,
|
When they're starving for a meal to eat,
|
When they simply need a place to make their beds,
|
Right here underneath my wing,
|
You can rest your head.
|
|
On that day when you need your brothers and sisters to care,
|
I'll be right here!
|
Citizen soldiers holding the light for the ones that we guide from the dark of despair.
|
Standing on guard for the ones that we sheltered,
|
We'll always be ready because we will always be there...
|
|
There... there... there...
|
|
Hope and pray that you'll never need me,
|
But rest assured I will not let you down.
|
I'll walk beside you but you may not see me,
|
The strongest among you may not wear a crown.
|
|
On that day when you need your brothers and sisters to care,
|
I'll be right here!
|
On that day when you don't have the strength for the burden you bear,
|
I'll be right here!
|
Citizen soldiers holding the light for the ones that we guide from the dark of despair.
|
(Citizen soldiers)
|
Standing on guard for the ones that we sheltered,
|
We'll always be ready because we will always be there.
