We Could Wake

We saw on the news today
Now just brace for the fall
Our faith is in the faith of yesterdays
We could wake
This all could be gone

And through that open window
We see the shadows face the light
Are they coming for our lives?

Are you a merciful soldier?
Your prayers echo through the night
But why repent if this is right?

We saw there are dues to pay
We're just caught in fire
In the sky are helicopters and planes
Now just wait
For the calm

Are you a merciful soldier?
Now you've looked me in the eye
Are you going to let me die?

We saw on the news today
Now just brace for the fall
Our fate is in the faith of yesterdays
We could wake
This all could be gone

We saw on the news today
Now just brace for the fall
