It seems like only yesterday We found ourselves alone With no one to protect us Don't tell us that you didn't know The photographs would show The desolation of our homes It never was enough for you You take and you take But it was hell you gave back to us We've learned our lessons well We'll take our desperate times And answer desperate measures When everything you have is gone The only thing you want Retaliation for the loss It never was enough for you The blood and the pride Will only bring us more burials Please, please call for help We need a paramedic on the scene, now Or will you run, to save yourself And just leave me here until I bleed out I should have seen this coming How was I supposed to know That you would abandon me A cold and empty feeling From a heart that turned to stone I hope it was enough for you We wait and we wait But you never came back for us Please, please call for help We need a paramedic on the scene, now Or will you run, to save yourself And just leave me here until I bleed out Surrounded by T.V. screens And visions of an empty dream Paralyzed by belief And all we take for granted I need to know What happened to my life My love, my hope Please, please call for help We need a paramedic on the scene, now Or will you run, to save yourself And just leave me here Leave me here until I bleed out We need a paramedic on the scene now We need a paramedic on the scene now
