We're Standing the watch (Remix)

Verse I From the decks of rolling carriers To the mountains’ frozen stone From the deserts of the Army To the skies where jets have flown Marines in fire and thunder Air Force in the endless blue Guard in the storms and wildfires Space Force watching over you Pre-Chorus We carry more than rifles We carry every name Of the people we protect And the ones that never came Chorus We’re still standing the watch When the world turns its back Through the fire, through the flood Through the blood and the black We’re still standing the watch With our hands on the line So the innocent wake up To a safe morning sky No medals for the tears No spotlight for the cost But we’d do it all again Yeah, we’re still standing the watch Verse II Coast Guard in the raging breakers Border nights under desert stars Police lights cut through the silence Firefighters walking into scars Federal shields in the shadows EMTs on shattered roads Holding broken lives together While the whole world never knows Pre-Chorus II We don’t ask to be remembered We don’t ask to be believed We just hold the line for strangers And carry what they can’t see Chorus We’re still standing the watch When the world falls apart With a patch on our shoulder And a war in our heart We’re still standing the watch Till the last bell rings So your kids can dream safely Of tomorrow’s bright things No medals for the tears No spotlight for the cost But we’d do it all again Yeah, we’re still standing the watch Bridge (Nordic Choir Build) (Low male choir) Stand fast… hold the line… Through the dark, we are the light… (Female choir) From the ash, from the storm, We endure… we are sworn… (Spoken, gravelly) We didn’t come for the glory We came because someone had to Final Chorus (Full Choir + Orchestra + Metal Band) We’re still standing the watch Through the long, endless night When the world forgets our names We remember why we fight We’re still standing the watch For the ones we protect For the promise we made And the lives we won’t neglect No medals for the tears No spotlight for the cost But we’d do it all again Yeah, we’re still standing the watch Outro So if you sleep a little easier And your streets are quiet tonight Know there’s someone in the darkness Holding the line for your life We’re still standing the watch.
