The Ones To Save Lyrics

It was a quiet night, a mother sits
Her child in her arms
Her husband curled close
All blazing with love by the evening's fire

They are happy, they are safe
They are untouched by darkness
And oh, perfection goes wrong

Out on the streets a rat scurries on
With tainted intentions.
By wand he kills many,
His finger he sheds
The innocent friend is blamed

Oh, if only they knew, if only they knew
That betrayal runs deeper than friendship
Oh, if only they knew, if only they knew
That their son would become the savior
For the world...their deaths saved

They notice a presence and with a knock on the door
They run, they hide,
With a quick flash of light
They know this could be the end

They were happy, they were safe
But the darkness reached in
And oh, it's all going to hell
First the man falls, he is cold while she screams
Her baby boy cries
And she sends her love before she goes down
He'd never be alone

Oh, if only they knew, if only they knew
That betrayal runs deeper than friendship
Oh, if only they knew, if only they knew
That their son would become the savior
For the world...their deaths saved

The mark was given, the darkness fell
But happiness, faded
Friends were lost and lovers were taken
This was the end...and it all went to hell

Oh, if only they knew, if only they knew
That betrayal runs deeper than friendship
Oh, if only they knew, if only they knew
That their son would become the savior
For the world...
Our lives he will save
