To the Men That Stand Against the Dragon
The dragon is nor man or beast
But destroys all to say the least
If your not careful its fire you will see
Every gust of wind is the dragons feed
The dragons travels across the lands
Destroying everything that it can
The dragon can settle anywhere
And get stronger with every breath of air
It sleeps in are forests hides in are fields
Waiting to be fed so are lands it can steal
And for all the fire fighters that stand to fight it alone
I salute to you for protecting my land and home
Over time many men you have lost
Still you stand against the dragon at any cost
Protecting a wife's dreams a child's hope a mans pride
Always knowing the dragon never meets death it only hides
In memory of my father Paul Thomas who was a firefighter in Ancaster Ont
And to all firefighters that we have lost in the world
And for the fire fighters that protect are lives everyday
Thank you and god bless
