Hero Of The Day

    Mama they try and break me

    The window burns to light the way back home
    A light that warms no matter where they've gone
    They're off to find the hero of the day
    But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way

     Still the window burns
     Time so slowly turns
     And someone there is sighing
     Keepers of the flames
     Do ya feel your name?
     Can't you hear your babies crying?

    Mama they try and break me
    Still they try and break me

    'Scuze me while I tend to how I feel
    These things return to me that still seem real
    Now deservingly this easy chair
    But the rocking stopped by wheels of despair

    Don't want your aid
    But the fist I've made
    For years can't hold or feel
    No, I'm not all me
    So please excuse me
    While I tend to how I feel

    But now the dreams and waking screams
    That ever last the night
    So build the wall, behind it crawl
    And hide until it's light
    So can't you hear your babies cryin' now?

     Still the window burns
     Time so slowly turns
     And someone there is sighing
     Keepers of the flames
     Can't you hear your names?
     Can't you hear your babies crying?

    But now the dreams and waking screams
    That ever last the night
    So build the wall, behind it crawl
    And hide until it's light
    So can't you hear your babies cryin' now?
