Where Are You Now lyrics

My knees are shaking, mud and red Counting faces of the dead They keep on coming, endless tide There's nowhere left for us to hide I'm trying hard to catch my breath Each second closer to my death My captain's gone, his eyes still wide I've never felt this small inside Where are you now when I need you most When my hands are empty and I've lost my post Where are you now, I'm screaming out your name Into the smoke and blood and flame Where are you now, can't do this on my own Where are you now, I'm breaking down to bone Send me something, send me anyone Before this horror's done My sword arm's burning, legs won't hold The morning Sun's so bitter cold I see their banners, black as night While ours are torn and barely white I'm thinking of my mother's face The home I'll never see again, that place Where everything was safe and clean Not like this waking nightmare scene Where are you now when hope is thin When I can feel them closing in Where are you now, I'm calling through the storm My throat is raw, my heart is torn Where are you now, I can't keep standing tall Where are you now, I'm about to fall Send me mercy, send me one more chance Before I lose this dance Then silence hits me like a punch Nobody's coming, nobody's here But I can see the others near Their eyes are seeking what I asked But I'll pull them back across the line Get up, move now, protect the weak I'll be the help that they all seek Now I'm moving through the smoke Pulling people from the choke Grabbing soldiers, shouting move I'm the one I needed to prove I was the one I waited for I am the answer to that roar Nobody came but that's alright I became my own light tonight
