You went to work as usual
But that’s when he ran inside
He was holding a pistol
And it ended in a fight
You walked out of the room
With your head held sky high
You escaped your tomb
And you’re not gonna ask why
You have the rest of your life
To live the way you want to
Maybe find yourself a wife
And have a kid or two

You protect the ones you love
No matter the cost to you
You’ve gone beyond and above
It what you always do
With your past set in stone
Now your new life begins
So it’s time to move on
See what this new life brings

When the nightmare was over
You just felt so lucky
Like a four leafed clover
You wanted to be happy
You made a deal with yourself
What you’d do if you got out
Only drink from the top shelf
Find out what life is about
Settle down, travel the world
You could be who you wanted
Or just meet a nice girl
You wouldn’t be haunted

You protect the ones you love
No matter the cost to you
You’ve gone beyond and above
It what you always do
With your past set in stone
Now your new life begins
So it’s time to move on
See what this new life brings

Every step you take
Every breath you breathe
It’s too little too late
It’s the life you didn’t live
Cause you never made it out
You never did get to leave

He protected those he loved
No matter the cost to him
He went beyond and above
It’s what he always did
With his past set in stone
Now his new life begins
So it’s time to move on
See what this new life brings
