August Burns Red - Defender Lyrics
Official




Tonight I saw a father's love, in waves, start to rise

I will not stand by and watch what I made be demonized

He insists you dug a hole, a hole of bitterness

A rock and a hard place sounds easy compared to this



Righteous wrath

Righteous wrath wrapped in empathy

Like a hurricane passing over a calming sea

Righteous wrath

Righteous wrath wrapped in empathy

Like a forest fire spreading through the pouring rain



(I would do anything)

I would do anything to make it through, but it takes two

One is me, the other's you

I would do anything to make it through, but it takes you



Righteous wrath

Righteous wrath wrapped in empathy

Like a hurricane passing over a calming sea

Righteous wrath

Righteous wrath wrapped in empathy

Like a forest fire spreading through the pouring rain



The ones who know what's best are the best to have around

An understanding man doing the best he can to comprehend

A voice that shakes as he calms the quake

We need a defender who bends so we don't break



There is no judge

I am the jury and the defendant

The gavel has no hand

Who will deliver the sentence?



Bitterness has no end



I would do anything to make it through, but it takes two

One is me, the other is you

I would do anything to make it through, but it takes you



A friend defends the one he loves

In all things love, love transcends



I need a defender

A voice that shakes to calm the quake

I need a defender who bends and breaks in my place
