In the trenches for so long
Flat out tired, it's not wrong
To need a rest, settle down
Calm yourself a little now
When you feel heavy, your head's sore
And your feet won't seem to leave the floor
Hold on to me when you start to shake
Sleep for awhile and when you wake
I'll be standing here with Both Hands ready
To calm your fear and keep you steady
So you understand, I'll make it clear
I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay right here
For you
