I reach out with healing hands
To mend the broken, help them stand
But every wound, every scar
Reminds me of how far we are
I lift them up, I bring them through
But in the end, what can I do?
For every life I choose to save
Another falls into the grave
In the light, I find my way
But shadows linger in the fray
The wings I wear, they weigh me down
When the world's still burning all around
I lift them up, I bring them through
But in the end, what can I do?
For every life I choose to save
Another falls into the grave
Is it mercy, or is it war?
Every life saved means something more
A price to pay, a line to cross
Each breath a gain, each death a loss
I lift them up, I bring them through
But in the end, what can I do?
For every life I choose to save
Another falls into the grave
(Into the grave)
(Into the grave)
Is it mercy, or is it war?
Every life saved means something more
A price to pay, a line to cross
Each breath a gain, each death a loss
I lift them up, I bring them through
But in the end, what can I do?
For every life I choose to save
Another falls into the grave
