The Vigilante

[Verse 1]
I see the vigilante watching in the deep of the night
I always find him where his heart is, he's fighting the good fight
He smells the scent of trouble and prepares to leave
He's got his eyes on the horizon, reaching higher
He's got his eyes on the horizon and his boots on his feet

[Verse 2]
When I was stranded at the crossroads, it was dismal and grey
When I asked him for directions, he showed me the good way
And if the sky is swirling, still his pace never swerves
Because his heart is always faithful, reaching higher
You know, his heart is always faithful to the captain he serves

[Chorus 1]
So when the storm of deception is rounding the bend
You know the vigilante's watching, he won't let it in

[Verse 3]
Though I have seen him climbing mountains with so heavy a load
He always lends a helping hand and he walks on the good road
It often makes me wonder how he wins with such ease
But then he keeps his vigil constant, he's aiming to please

[Chorus 2]
So when illusion's approaching and danger is nigh
You know the vigilante's watching, he won't let it by

[Verse 4]
I've seen him fight the fiercest foe until its forces divide
'Cause he's the fairest of them all and he chooses the good side
So when the tempters tease and try to make him unsure
You know the fires of war are burning, reaching higher
You know the fires of war are burning, but his weapons are pure

[Chorus 3]
So when the clouds of confusion can creep into view
You know the vigilante's watching, he won't let them through

[Verse 1]
I see the vigilante watching in the deep of the night
I always find him where his heart is, he's fighting the good fight
He smells the scent of trouble and prepares to leave
He's got his eyes on the horizon, reaching higher
He's got his eyes on the horizon and his boots on his feet

[Outro]
He's watching twenty-four hours a day
