Please, let me shake your hand
And thank you for your service
For your loyalty to our land
Please, let me shake your hand
I am forever grateful you took a stand
To keep our flag above the surface
So please, let me shake your hand
And thank you for your service

She didn’t lock her door
But she didn’t let them in
They dragged her out across the floor
She didn’t lock her door
They’re taking all she had and more
But she will not let them win
No, she didn’t lock her door
But she didn’t let them in
Those bastards are going to pay
Once she finds the strength within
There’s really nothing left to say
Those bastards are going to pay
They can’t expect to get away
Now that rage has scorched her skin
Oh, those bastards are going to pay
Once she finds the strength within
She will finally find her calling
Because she didn’t lock her door
She will battle that which she finds appalling
She will finally find her calling
This night she will keep recalling
And Evil will fear her forevermore
Yes, she will finally find her calling
Because she didn’t lock her door

Know that you can count on me
For I would never let you down.
When time turns on you indeed
Know that you can count on me.
Though it seems that I’m in need
Every time you turn around
Know that you can count on me
For I would never let you down.
I’ll be the one to catch you when you fall
For I would never let you down.
When defeat is near give me a call,
I’ll be the one to catch you when you fall.
Do not send for me if you don’t believe in me at all.
But if I am one you seek, don’t be afraid to turn around,
I’ll be the one to catch you when you fall
For I would never let you down.

I’m sorry young man
But your stories are getting old
She’s taking more than she could stand
I’m sorry young man,
Have you tried telling the truth? Instead of hiding what you can?
It’s kind of too late now, her touch has grown cold,
I’m sorry young man
But your stories are getting old
But go ahead, Lie again
It’s not like she doesn’t know
You were never really a friend
But go ahead, Lie again.
Still, you really have to wonder, when is it going to end?
Every night you come home to put on a show
But go ahead, Lie again
It’s not like she doesn’t know
