Saving a Hero - Forensic
Composed by:Eric Mandan Garcia
When the day is done
Hold me close
Promises are ours to keep
All the clothes will disappear
So tell me how it is that a hero needs saving
How he needs that support to keep his roof from caving
Holding tight on that 45 as a tear drops from his eye
Picturing his mom is all thats kept him alive
'Cause he's buried his friends and he's buried his thoughts
Suppress his demons inside until his stomach's in knots
I see you on your knees so please
Let me give you help
Pick you up lift you up and put
You on that top shelf
Trying to improve but he keeps dealing with this feeling
Like he can't push up any harder
His head has hit the ceiling
He's seen so many hurt and so many in trouble
So who's to help him keep his world from turning to rubble
Time and time again he's witnessed
Someone's son on the pavement
Yet the evil he sees on TV he sees as entertainment
Telling him to be strong through it all
But these thoughts he's still braving
So tell me again how a hero needs saving
When the day is done
When the day is done yeah yeah yeah
Hold me close
Hold me close
Bbay uet never let me go
Promises are ours to keep
Promises are ours to keep hold back to you
Yeha yeah
All the clothes will disappear
Yeha yeah
Give a kiss to his boy and a kiss to his girl
Each day he walks away from these things and his world
Expected to be the rock solid from bottom to top
He's so hard on the streets but inside he feels so soft
Hes' dodges bullets and knives stopped me from beating wives
But boom then someone tries
To take his gun now he took a life
And all you do is stare spread rumors he don't care
Replaying that moment can't disown it
With a gun to his head
It ain't fair he knew when he started he goes so far
You had a long day at work he failed at CPR
His motivation's gone no more fire in his eyes
Went from peaceful nights to dreams
Of crimes scenes and cries
He never could guess his friend would take two to the chest
But forget the pain he pushes back like bring on the rest
As you're planning you weekend his planning
Out his headstone engraving
So go and tell me again how a hero needs saving
When the day is done
When the day is done yeah yea heya
Hold me close
Hold me close baby yet never let me go
Promises are ours to keep
Promises keep it turn
Hold back to you yea yeah yeah
All the clothes will disappear
Blue sky on my rising inside
Yeha eha
Who can say where the road will go
As the world goes round and round
Wipe away your tears baby
I am home
We've lost too many heroes to the war in their minds
We must do something better
We can't keep leaving them behind
Are you picturing death or is death picturing you
The struggle is real inside
So let me tell you what you'll do
Rise back up get back up
And tell us how you feel
You can't bottle it up any longer
Show us that it's real
Like a bird set free now you see
How life can be so amazing
Nothing feels better than saving
A hero that needed saving
When the day is done
Hold me close
Promises are ours to keep
All the clothes will disappear
When the day is done
When the day is done yeah yeah
Hold me close
Hold me close baby yet never let me go
Promises are ours to keep
Promises keep it turn
Hold back to you yea yeah yeah
All the clothes will disappear
Blue sky on my rising inside
Yeha eha
