It was a dark and stormy night
Nor'Easter rollin' in
it's a long twelve hours
the power's out again
i pray for inner strength and that we don't lose no lives
just another day in a first responders eyes
half a cup of coffee's gone
the first run comes in
car slid off the road there's a family trapped within in my heart beats like a hammer i can barely catch my breath i'm thinking the worst and hoping for the best
yeah cause we ain't super heroes we're just ordinary people trying to make a difference and the first on every scene
and it's a heavy heavy burden to carry all this hurting when you can't unsee the things you've seen keeps going on when those sirens are gone
now my shift is finally over i gotta deal with what's mine and try to find a way to leave those tragedies behind so i hug my two children i kiss on my wife just another day in a first responders life
yeah we ain't super heroes we're just ordinary people trying to make a difference and the first on every scene and it's a heavy heavt burden to carry all this hurting when you can't unsee the things you've seen it keeps going on when thise sirens are gone
flashing lights fill the air
broken bodies everywhere
another bad dream
is stealing my sleep
cause we ain't superheroes we're just ordinary people trying to make a difference and the first on every scene and it's a heavy heavy burden to carry all this hurting when you can't unsee the things you've seen
it keeps going on when those sirens are gone
it keeps going on
when those sirens are gone
