In troubled times It's hard to get straight answers Between the lines That border wrong or right The homeland cries It struggles with confusion But this feelin' still remains Like shelter from the rain We live of faith In the hands of those who guide us And tear the page On the fear we left behind We set the pace For every born survivor Don't turn the other way When I need to hear you say Allies with our backs against the wall I will answer when you call And take on the odds For what we believe is true Allies in a world of too much choice I only need your voice To tell me you care I'll be anywhere for you, allies We search our hearts To justify the reason And draw the line To meet somewhere halfway If faith is blind Through darkness it will guide us 'Cause the spirit still remains With the keepers of the flame Allies with our backs against the wall I will answer when you call And take on the odds For what we believe is true Allies in a world of too much choice I only need your voice To tell me you care I'll be anywhere for you, allies Allies with our backs against the wall I will answer when you call And take on the odds For what we believe is true Allies in a world of too much choice I only need your voice To tell me you care I'll be anywhere for you, allies
