(whoosh) Red and blue flash on the alley wall
A midnight shift, answering the call
Smoke is rising through the city grate
They run inside before it is too late
When the alarm rings,
they face the flame
Through the dark streets,
they know the game
Fighting the shadow,
holding the line
Saving a life at the end of time
(holding the line)
Sirens wail through the crowded avenue
Heavy gear, boots stepping through
Breaking the door, fighting back the heat
While officers patrol the heavy beat
(stay
back) Through the smoke,
they find a way (stay
back) Bringing hope to light the day
When the alarm rings,
they face the flame
Through the dark streets,
they know the game
Fighting the shadow,
holding the line
Saving a life at the end of time
(holding the line) (whoosh)
