I said Sarg I need a hero
I said sir I need a hand
To defend this Constitution
Throughout all this wounded land
And I'm not looking for a God sir
I'm looking for a friend
Send me home till the darkness comes again
In the pillows of the hopeless
Are the feathers plucked by greed
And the toil of our farmers
Are in each and every seed
I'm not begging for forgiveness sir
My heart is mine to lend
Send me home till the darkness comes again
Leave me alone till the darkness comes again
Fill our mountains with acceptance
And our lakes with civil rights
Light the sky with Lady Liberty
Freedom rings true all our lives
And justice rests in the hearts of men
Won't violence ever die
These wounds shall mend
Till the darkness comes again
Stay true my friends
Till the darkness comes again
