3 Doors Down - Citizen/Soldier

Beyond the boundaries of your citys lights.
Stand the heroes waiting for your cries.
So many times you did not bring this on yourself.
When the moment finally comes, Ill be there to help.

And on that day,
when you need your brothers and sisters to care.
Ill 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 weve sheltered.
Well always be ready because we will always be there.

When therere people crying in the streets.
When theyre 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.
Ill 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 weve sheltered.
Well always be ready because we will always be there.

Hope and pray, that you never need me.
The rest assured I will not let you down.
I walk beside you, but you may not see me.
The strongest among you may not wear a crown.

On the day
when you need your brothers and sisters to care.
Ill be right here.
On that day when you dont have strength
for the burden you bear.
Ill 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've sheltered.
We'll always be ready because we will always be there.
