Beyond the boundaries of your city's lights   Stand the heroes waiting for your cries   So many times you did not bring this on yourself   When the moment finally comes, I'll be there to help      And on that day, when you need your brothers and sisters to care   I'll be right here      Citizen soldiers   Holding the light for the ones that we guide from the dark of despair   Standing on guard for the ones that we've sheltered   We'll always be ready because we will always be there      When there're people crying in the streets   When they're starving for a meal to eat   When they simply need a place to make their beds   Right here underneath my wing, you can rest your head      On that day, when you need your brothers and sisters to care   I'll be right here      Citizen soldiers   Holding the light for the ones that we guide from the dark of despair   Standing on guard for the ones that we've sheltered   We'll always be ready because we will always be there      Hope and pray, that you never need me   But rest assured I will not let you down   I walk beside you, but you may not see me   The strongest among you may not wear a crown   Citizen soldier      On that day when you need your brothers and sisters to care   I'll be right here   On that day when you don't have the strength for the burden you bear   I'll be right here      Citizen soldiers   Holding the light for the ones that we guide from the dark of despair   Standing on guard for the ones that we've sheltered   We'll always be ready because we will always be there      Citizen soldiers   Holding the light for the ones that we guide from the dark of despair   Standing on guard for the ones that we've sheltered   We'll always be ready because we will always be there
