Lyrics

[Verse 1] Blackbird flyin' into the fire Another 9-line coming through wire Dust off dust off time to fly Blind to a midnight sky St. Michael's medallion in my hand Controlled crash in the desert sand Enemy fire a bleeding man Turn and burn just as fast as we can [Chorus] I didn't come here for a fight You sent me here to save lives But I'm losing my faith losing my patience patience Feels like I'm out here on my own No emotion cold as stone Can't you see the toll that it's takin' takin' God I'm the one needing savin' savin' [Verse 2] Well God you said you had my six But now I'm home and I can't fix My broken mind from playing tricks When I left my kids was just kids [Chorus] I didn't go there for a fight You sent me there to save lives But I'm losing my faith losing my patience patience Feels like I'm out here on my own No emotion cold as stone Can't you see the toll that it's takin' takin' God I'm the one needing savin' savin' [Bridge] Time past and I finally start to see The kinda man in the mirror I'm trying to be Well my friends and family Aw they never lost faith in me They even got me back here in this pew Damning God for all he put me through He said you might've lost faith in me Stu But I never lost faith in you and he said [Chorus] I didn't come here for a fight Stu you saved so many lives You gave people faith through your patience patience You were never out there on your own You always had a family and a home My hand's still here for the takin' takin' And I'm always here when you need savin' savin' Yeah I'm always here when you need savin' savin' I'm always here when you need savin' savin'
