Heart of the Warrior

The night shift
In the city
Mean streets
Grimy and gritty
The fearless run
Into the jaws of the crime
Street by street
Stopping the trouble in time
Some walk undercover
Some link arms with each other
Deep in the night beats the heart of the warrior
The shield that protects one and all
In the heat of the night beats the heart of the warrior
Fighting together, they stand rise or fall
Fire
Evil stranger
Wild winds
Spread the danger
By air and land
Hoping to smother the flames
Heroes risk their lives
Running with ice in their veins
Then calmly, bravely
Pull a family to safety
Deep in the night beats the heart of the warrior
The shield that protects one and all
In the heat of the night beats the heart of the warrior
Fighting together, they stand rise or fall
How does it feel
To be a human shield
For someone else’s life?
To be the sacrifice?
How can we repay
Those who stand in harm’s way
Who know the lives they save
Are worth any price?
