Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Boots by the door
Coffee gone cold
Kids in their capes
Saying
“Dad
You’re so bold”
I kiss their hair
Hide the tremor in my hands
They see a giant
World just sees the uniform and van
[Pre-Chorus]
Every siren
Pulls a piece of me
Skin looks clean
But the scars go deep
[Chorus]
Every loss like a tattoo on my heart
Ink you can’t see in the dark
Saving your life while I’m losing my own
Breathing in smoke
Still I walk into the glow
I’m the hero in my children’s eyes
But I’m burning on the inside
Every loss like a tattoo on my heart
[Verse 2]
Gloves on the floor
Smell of metal and rain
Laugh in the bay
To keep from saying “I’m not okay”
Faces I carried
Ride home in the rearview glass
Names I never knew
Still haunt me like a photograph
[Pre-Chorus]
You see the lights
Then you look away
But I see their eyes
When I try to sleep
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
Who saves the savior
When the scene is clear
Who cuts me out
Of the wreckage in here
I hold my kids
They think I’m made of steel
If they touch my chest
They can feel me shake
Trying to heal
[Chorus]
