Being an EMT
Lights Are Flashing, Sirens Are Wailing
My Adrenaline Starts Pumping, My Heart Starts Thumping
I Can Only Pray God Will Give Me The Strength
To Go To Such Great Length
I Hope I Am Trained For What This Call Could Be,
After All I'm Just An EMT
And Just When I Think I've Saw It All,
I Have Some Of My Biggest Falls
Like The Baby That Was Born Only To Die Moments Later.
I Witnessed The 14 Year Old Mother Mourn
Like The 102 Year Old Man In Cardiac Arrest,
Did CPR Like Practicing For A Test
He Was Down Too Long,
Did It For His Wife Who Thought It Wasn't His Time To Go
Why Am I Doing This?
Surely Not Because Of The Bad I Witness
I Can Make A Difference, A Change In Someone's Life,
But Their Has To Be An Exchange
You Can't Save Them All When God's Angels Get A Call
They Have To Go, Everyone Has A Time You Know
As Long As You Do All You Can
And Realize Your Not A Miracle Man
