August Burns Red – Defender Lyrics
Defender By August Burns Red Tonight I saw a father’s love, in waves, start to rise I will not stand by and watch what I made be demonized He insists you dug a hole, a hole of bitterness A rock and a hard place sounds easy compared to this Righteous wrath wrapped in empathy, like a hurricane passing over a calming sea Righteous wrath wrapped in empathy, like a forest fire spreading through the pouring rain I would do anything to make it through, but it takes two One is me, the other’s you I would do anything to make it through, but it takes you Righteous wrath wrapped in empathy, like a hurricane passing over a calming sea Righteous wrath wrapped in empathy, like a forest fire spreading through the pouring rain The ones who know what’s best are the best to have around An understanding man doing the best he can to comprehend A voice that shakes as he calms the quake We need a defender who bends so we don’t break There is no judge I am the jury and the defendant T
