Guardian

Guardian
you who has smiled when you're in pain
you who has soldiered through the profane
they were distracted and shut down
so why would you talk to me at all
such words were dishonorable and in vain
their promise as solid as a fog
and your where was watchman then

*coro*
i'llbe your keeper for life
as your guardian
i'llbe your warrior of care
your first warden
i'llbe your angel
on call
i'llbe on demand
the greatest honor
of all as your guardian
you, you in the chaos feigning sane
you who has pushed beyond what's humane
as the them ghostly tumbleweed
and where was your watchman then
*coro*
i'llbe your keeper for life
as your guardian
i'llbe your warrior of care
your first warden
i'llbe your angel
on call
i'llbe on demand
the greatest honor
of all as your guardian
now no more smiling mid-crestfall
no more managing unmanageables
no more holding still in the hailstorm
now enter your watchwoman
*coro*
i'llbe your keeper for life
as your guardian
i'llbe your warrior of care
your first warden
i'llbe your angel
on call
i'llbe on demand
the greatest honor
of all as your guardian
