You try to close your ears 

And you try to close your eyes 

But the blasphemies keep coming 

Tempting you with lies 



(Chorus) 



Give thanks for you protection 

Your watchdogs of the night 

Who hold the hungry wolves at bay 

And keep them out of sight, out of sight 





You just don`t understand it 

But it strikes a distant chord 

So you look for away of escaping 

And sanity`s restored 





(Chorus) 



Give thanks for your protection 

the watchdogs of the night...... 





You focus your direction 

Cloak tightly pulled around 

But somewhere in the distance 

You can hear a haunting sound 





(Chorus) 



Give thanks for your protection 

the watchdogs of the night ........





You`re in danger of corruption 

And you`re always running scared

You cannot make decisions 

You`re completely unprepared 





(Chorus) 



Give thanks for your protection 

the watchdogs of the night .....
