Yeah… yeah…
Hear the sirens cry…
⸻
[Verse 1]
Sun comes up but I don’t feel the light
Another long shift bleedin’ into night
Little voices echo in my head
“Don’t go, daddy…” words I never said
Boots hit the floor, shadows on the wall
Every step feels like I might fall
Kiss their faces, say a prayer in vain
Walk out the door into the pouring rain
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
I see danger in every street
Hear the devil in every heartbeat
But I keep on walkin’ that line
For those little hands holding mine
⸻
[Chorus]
I’m an angel in blue, walking through fire
Holding the line on a razor wire
Every day I’m fading away
But I do it all so my kids can stay safe
Yeah I’m an angel in blue, can’t you see
This badge is a curse that’s buried in me
But I’ll face the night, I’ll pay the due
I’d give my life just to come home to you
⸻
[Verse 2]
Flashing lights and a loaded gun
Another lost soul on the run
Every choice is a twist of fate
One wrong move and it seals your fate
I’ve seen things you can’t erase
Too many ghosts I’ve had to face
They whisper loud when the night goes still
And I wonder if they always will
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Every scream, every cry I hear
Gets buried deep but it stays right here
And the weight of it pulls me down
But I won’t let it take me now
⸻
[Chorus]
I’m an angel in blue, walking through fire
Holding the line on a razor wire
Every day I’m fading away
But I do it all so my kids can stay safe
Yeah I’m an angel in blue, can’t you see
This badge is a curse that’s buried in me
But I’ll face the night, I’ll pay the due
I’d give my life just to come home to you
⸻
[Bridge – Slow, haunting build]
If I don’t make it home tonight…
Will they remember my face?
Or just a badge and a number…
Gone without a trace…
Oh Lord, can you hear me now?
I’m standing on the edge somehow…
Don’t let my children walk alone…
Just let me make it home…
⸻
[Guitar Solo Break]
(Heavy, emotional lead… bending notes crying like sirens)
⸻
[Final Chorus – Big, powerful]
I’m an angel in blue, screaming in pain
Dancing with death in the pouring rain
But I won’t break, no I won’t fall
For the ones who mean everything, I’ll give it all
Yeah I’m an angel in blue, till my last breath
Staring down shadows and cheating death
And when it’s over, whatever I lose…
Just know I lived as an angel in blue
⸻
[Outro – Soft, fading]
Sirens fade into the night…
Children sleep… everything’s alright…
…for now…
