PTSD - Remastered

On a bright and cold summer morning
You told me you were ready to go
Off to take a respite from your dreams
Off to challenge your reality
Taking time to journey far away
You told me you would be back one day

In your vision
I will protect this place
I will honour your final request
To be mindful of these time-worn boxes
Holding what you could not retrieve
I stand guard over your home now lost

In one hand your supplies for conquest
In the other a promise to return
Someday you'll be back better than
Better than you think you are now
Then you asked of me a simple task
Something that I thought I took to heart

I stand guard over your home now lost

The shelter is broken
The splinters gasping in fear
I cannot save this place
The water now flowing through
To wash away everything you left behind
And I despise
What's brought forth from the sky

Your hero emerges
Summoned from the ashes of your legacy
I have rebuilt everything
Only to see your face
Walking in through the back door
To receive your gratitude
For my role is fulfilled

You'll never know
I was the demon
I conjured the flood
You brought this on yourself
You'll never know
I was the demon
I conjured the flood
You brought this on yourself
You'll never know
I was the demon
I conjured the flood
You brought this on yourself
