Paramedic Lyrics

It seems like only yesterday
We found ourselves alone
With no one to protect us
Don't tell us that you didn't know
The photographs would show
The desolation of our homes
It never was enough for you
You take and you take
But it was hell you gave back to us

We've learned our lessons well
We'll take our desperate times
And enter desperate measures
When everything you have is gone
The only thing you want retaliation for the loss
It never was enough for you
The blood and the pride
Will only bring us more burials

Please, please call for help
We need a paramedic on the scene, now
Or will you run, to save yourself
And just leave me here until I bleed out

I should have seen this coming
How was I supposed to know
That you would abandon me
A cold and empty feeling
From a heart that turned to stone
I hope it was enough for you
We wait and we wait but you never came back for us

Please, please call for help
We need a paramedic on the scene, now
Or will you run, to save yourself
And just leave me here until I bleed out

Surrounded by T.V. screens
And visions of an empty dream
Paralyzed by belief
And all we take for granted
I need to know
What happened to my life, my love, my hope

Please, please call for help
We need a paramedic on the scene, now
Or will you run, to save yourself
And just leave me here
Leave me here until I bleed out
We need a paramedic on the scene now
We need a paramedic on the scene now

Cover art for Paramedic lyrics by These Green Eyes

Wow, no one commented on this yet? Well, my interpretation of this is pretty far-fetched, but it immediately came to my mind and it kind of stuck.

I think it's about a group of children, and the narrator is one of them, and their orphans, their parents left them. It could be that they are all siblings coming from the same mother and father, or they are just connected because they all feel the same thing in common: abandonment.

My Interpretation
Cover art for Paramedic lyrics by These Green Eyes

this is what it said about their bibiography about the latest album, "Tackling issues of friendship, loss, remorse, and ultimately hope, These Green Eyes evoke a far more visceral variety of emotion on their breakthrough disc Relapse To Recovery, boiling down five years of trials and tribulations as a unit, culminating with the tragic and unexpected loss of a close band friend to suicide." so im guessing the song is talking about their friends suicide and how much it affected them. hence the words, "please, please call for help, we need a paramedic on the scene, now. Or will you run, to save yourself And just leave me here until I bleed out."
