[Verse] Long is the night The shadows crawl A watchman’s life We guard you all The stars above They blink and stall The wind whispers The world feels small [Prechorus] Raise the alarm Raise the cry Enemies gather The flames touch the sky [Chorus] Oh the watchman’s call The watchman’s call We stand We fall Through it all Oh the watchman’s call The watchman’s call To protect the great and the small [Verse 2] The cold bites deep The hours slow The moon hangs low A ghostly glow Footsteps echo Where shadows grow We hold the line Though none may know [Prechorus] Raise the horn Let it wail Light the fire Let it prevail [Chorus] Oh the watchman’s call The watchman’s call We stand We fall Through it all Oh the watchman’s call The watchman’s call To protect the great and the small
