Protectors of the light (Shield of steel style mix)

[Verse 1] Boots in the dust at the break of dawn Letters from home that I keep holding on Photos in pockets, ghosts in my hands Walking the edge of these forgotten lands Shadows are long where the searchlights roam Counting the stars like a map back home Every goodbye carved deep in my chest Marching through fire, never finding rest [Pre-Chorus] I feel the fear, I hear the sound Of hearts like thunder shaking the ground But I still stand when night attacks Carrying worlds upon my back [Chorus] I am a soldier of the rising light Holding the line in the endless night Under the gunfire, under the sky I live, I fall, I learn to fly Out in the crosswinds of wrong and right I chase a dawn that is burning bright If this is fate, then I won't hide I am a soldier, I survive [Verse 2] Names on the tags of the ones I've known Echo in fields where the wild grass has grown Laughing in memories, lost in the rain Heroes in silence that whisper my name Prayers in the radio static I hear Promises drawn on the smoke and the fear Every new scar is a vow that I made Guarding the fragile tomorrow we crave [Pre-Chorus] I feel the fear, I hear the sound Of hearts like thunder shaking the ground But I still stand when night attacks Carrying worlds upon my back [Chorus] I am a soldier of the rising light Holding the line in the endless night Under the gunfire, under the sky I live, I fall, I learn to fly Out in the crosswinds of wrong and right I chase a dawn that is burning bright If this is fate, then I won't hide I am a soldier, I survive [Bridge] When the dark surrounds me, I remember why Every tear and story written in the sky For the ones behind me, for the ones ahead I will keep on marching where the angels tread [Chorus] I am a soldier of the rising light Holding the line in the endless night Under the gunfire, under the sky I live, I fall, I learn to fly Out in the crosswinds of wrong and right I chase a dawn that is burning bright If this is fate, then I won't hide I am a soldier, I survive
