Heart of the Warrior

The night shift
In the city
Mean streets
Grimey 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

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
