As I drift to sleep I hear sirens in the distance Feels like hours until they fade into the abyss The last gasp, then silence Prayers now fill the space In between my dreams I grieve and grieve I breathe and breathe Another siren, another person called to the other side to fight this war One we didn’t ask for And yet it’s destined A rebirth of a nation requires angels beyond the thin veil We need more of them than they need us Trust this moment Trust is a moment Trust us in this moment Trust This was here long ago we were too afraid or too asleep or too awake to look in the mirror Our destiny is reflected back, our life all along was the trap Tap, tap, Tap, tap Another siren, another last breath The old way has now died love has risen, first breath of a new life Do you hear the sirens within you calling forward the true you in the silence? Tap, tap Tap, tap We are here.
