~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the darkness of the night,
Under a blanket of stars.
We fight for what is right,
And defend that which is ours.
Stealthily we go,
Through the forests tall.
Listening for what we know,
As a soldier’s call.
The life of one we might save,
Yet take one from another.
That doesn‘t mean that we are brave,
We just try to protect the weak, the innocent, each other...
In the darkness of the night,
We stealthily do fight.
