A paramedic is a healthcare professional that works in emergency medical situations. Paramedics provide advanced levels of care for medical emergencies and trauma. The majority of paramedics are based in the field in ambulances, emergency response vehicles, or in specialist mobile units such as cycle response. Paramedics provide out-of-hospital treatment and some diagnostic services, although some may undertake hospital-based roles, such as in the treatment of minor injuries.
Throughout the evolution of paramedic care, there has been an ongoing association with military conflict. One of the first indications of a formal process for managing injured people dates from the Imperial Legions of Rome, where aging Centurions, no longer able to fight, were given the task of organizing the removal of the wounded from the battlefield and providing some form of care. Such individuals, although not physicians, were probably among the world's earliest surgeons by default, being required to suture wounds and complete amputations. A similar situation existed in the Crusades, with the Knights Hospitallers of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem filling a similar function; this organisation continued, and evolved into what is now known throughout the Commonwealth of Nations as the St. John Ambulance.
I'm on my way it's an emergency I hear it in your voice when you talking me
You got me driving fast speeding like an ambulance
I gotta get to you
Let me be your paramedic, he just doesn't get it
He just keep on breaking your heart, shawty listen
I'm your paramedic, let go of the headache
Girl I can't wait to resuscitate you
No I'm no doctor but I can make you feel better
I know you're hurting he ain't working and I'm certain that I
Can describe the choire
It ain't healthy you and him and that's what I'll be here for
Let me be your paramedic, he just doesn't get it
He just keep on breaking your heart, shawty listen
I'm your paramedic, let go of the headache
Girl I can't wait to resuscitate you
Let me be your paramedic, he just doesn't get it
He just keep on breaking your heart, shawty listen
I'm your paramedic, let go of the headache
Girl I can't wait to resuscitate you
Let me be your psychiatrist, dermatologist,... , pharmacist,...
Psychical therapist, entomologist or... whatever it is
Let me be your paramedic, he just doesn't get it
He just keep on breaking your heart, shawty listen
I'm your paramedic, let go of the headache
Girl I can't wait to resuscitate you

Girl I can't wait to resuscitate you
Let me be your psychiatrist, dermatologist,... , pharmacist,...
No, you can't turn your back on this now
You can't play the coward and run
You can't flee from destiny
Lest you be the prodigal son
Just gaze at what you've done
You've come so far my child
Basking in the glory of your triumphs
With your head in the skies
Now watch as the world changes around you
Time is your master
You'll always be powerless
And you know it all too well
There's no sense in looking back
We're too late
You gave into cowardice
Existence won't sway my course
Strive to be remembered
We'll take this world by force
It seems we've reached this impass
Not a moment too soon
We control our own destinies
Our Souls progress
Though we're beaten
And we're battered
We've been destroyed
And we've been shattered
But we sing
I must scream to be heard
there is a red pigment in the sky
what burns on the horizon?
return to charred buildings;
off white pillars
now are cracked and black
haunting memories
of a wife saying to me
"I hope i die
before this beauty fades"
haunting memories
they have new meaning to me
"I hope i die before this beauty fades"
"No this cant be how rome ends!"
And when it does
it will capture all your flaws
in eternity
"Am i that delusional
that you can see it in my eyes?
are they burning red
like rome's burning skies?"
"No this cant be how rome ends!"
And when it does
it will capture all your flaws
in eternity
"I MUST BE A GOD....
I KILL...
I DESTROY...
I STEAL...
AND NOTHING HAPPENS TO ME...
NOTHING HAPPENS TO ME..."
NOTHING
"No this cant be how rome ends!"
(no it can't, no it can't)
And when it does
it will capture all your flaws
in eternity
men stay the course
for your captain
men stay the course
for your captain
we've been chasing horizons
for uncharted lands
with compass in hand
keep a weather eye
on the stormy skies
we'll make it home tonight
we can't quench this fire
that burns inside if me
we can't quench this fire
we'll take it to the sea
this ship is mine
ill sail until the waves run dry
my heart will settle like the seas
this blue depth will soon find peace
(peace)
oh we're going down!
this ship is mine
ill sail until the waves run dry
(waves run dry)
my heart will settle just like the seas
this blue depth will soon find peace
(peace)
neptune has not taken favor
on our ship
batten down the hatch!
we've been overcome!
batten down the hatch!
we've been overcome....
this ship is mine
ill sail until the waves run dry
my heart will settle like the seas
this blue depth will soon find peace
[1st Verse]
Here we are...
Beg for forgiveness
Plea for your redemption
Beg for forgiveness
You don't deserve salvation
You'll get no forgiveness from me
Don't waste your breath
I see right through your façade
I've passed your test
And now that we've arrived
Back at square one,
We'll play the same parts that we've,
We've always done!
[Chorus]
Go and seek your amnesty
From the throne you fell
Off of
Go and seek your amnesty
From the throne you fell
Off of
[2nd Verse]
Beg for forgiveness
Beg for forgiveness
Beg for forgiveness (Beg)
How many more lies,
Before we all see the end of
Our days
How many more cycles
Until your realize this doesn't pay.
We will rise as a unit
We will bring you to your knees
[Chorus]
Go and seek your amnesty
From the throne you fell
Off of
Go and seek your amnesty
From the throne you fell
Off of
[Bridge]
Tell them all your dreams
Sing forth all your aspirations
Listen to them say
"Frankly my dear,
I don't give a shit"
[Outro]
You have falsified your claims
For the last time
(You will find me standing on top
Of everything you once held dear)
You will find me standing on top
Of everything you once held dear.
Go and seek your amnesty
ALPHA!
I know what will become of us.
There's nothing we can do this time.
His word was spoken and it split the sky.
And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal and, lo,
there was a great earthquake and the son became black
as sackcloth hair and the moon became as blood.
Oh what have we done?
We should have headed your warning.
But now all hope is lost.
The mountains fall, and the seas shall burn.
Tell me is this not what we have earned.
The moon grows red, and the son shall break.
Immortal, my soul is yours to take.
OH MY GOD!
Father, forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those
who trespass against us. Deliver us from evil. God save
our souls.
Our decisions have cost us dearly, and now we pay the
price. We can no longer seek refuge here. Don't close
your eyes, I can't be left behind.
And with their hands raised high...
He said unto his children...
I AM YOUR GOD
Glorifica Mus Te
Gloria In Excelsis Deo
hard to
place a finger on
and just when you do
the feeling is gone
(If you don't know)
(now you know)
(If you don't know)
(now you know)
I don't want this to stop
you've had my heart
from the beginning
don't let it go
do let it go
It's funny how
absence makes the heart grow
fonder
but consequently
it can make the heart go
wandering
(wandering)
(If you don't know)
(now you know)
(If you don't know)
(now you know)
I dont want this to stop
you've had my heart
from the beginning
dont let it go
do let it go
Baby just
give it time
it will be OK
Baby just
give it time
it will be OK
Give it time
Time
Give it time
(If you don't know)
(now you know)
(If you don't know)

i wish i was
as naive in love
as you are
in love as you are
well i refuse
to be someone's settling
well i refuse
to be someone's settling
well i refuse
to be someone's settling
this has to be
more than a chain reaction of chemicals
i'm cursed by cupid
we're naive in love
well i refuse
to be someone's settling
well i refuse
to be someone's settling
i've watched your baggage
float upon the shore
and i've had it
make me never want to see the sea
i've watched your baggage
float apon the shore
and ive had it
make me never want to see the sea again
Again
(again)
Again
(again)
Again
(never)
Again
(never)
When this is over
well i refuse
to be someone's settling
well i refuse
If only I
had seen the signs
I would have kept myself out of this mess again
The stars lined up enough
to tag my story right
I should have known
there's more to this
than black and white
stuck with my head in the clouds
until reality...
stuck with my head in the clouds
until reality intrudes
If only I
had seen the signs
I would have kept myself out of this mess again
It seems as though
you can
move planets and stars
with the greatest of ease
and with one
string of words
you make all my inhibitions cease
If only I
had seen the signs
I would have kept myself out of this mess again
The stars lined up enough
to tag my story right
I should have known
there's more to this
than black and white
stuck with my head in the clouds
until reality intrudes...
If only I...
Had seen the signs
ocean swallow me
swallow me whole
river drink me in
indulge this paper
indulge this pen
the sirens are waiting for me
waiting for me
This is the sirens song
its pulling me
this is the sirens song
its pulling me
upon these rocks
seashells in her hair
salt is on her breath
(salt is on her breath)
poised upon these
jagged rocks
like a rose
atop the spiky stem
begging to be plucked
begging to be gripped
gripped
This is the sirens song
its pulling me
this is the sirens song
its pulling me
upon these rocks
If i don't
(if i don't)
kiss and tell
(tell)
It's as if I've never kissed at all
(at all, at all)
(you've got me right where you want me)
This is the sirens song
its pulling me
this is the sirens song
its pulling me
no one learns
from their mistakes
the pain gives
as much
as it takes
So next time you
say that love
doesnt mean a thing
ive seen it launch a thousand ships
and take its aim
This love has launched a
thousand ships to shores
to reclaim
an adultress
bloodstained
conviction
show me that
i hold more
in my chest
than a dark cavity
full of organs
and cancer
This love
has launched a thousand ships to shores
to reclaim
an adultress
bloodstained
conviction
Helen
(Helen)
No Helen
No Helen, now what have you done?
what have you done
(what have you done?)
Helen
(Helen)
No Helen
No Helen now what have you done?
what have you done?
This love
I remember like it was yesterday
The first time you said everything you had to say.
You saw (You saw) The me (The me) That no one else has seen.
But my love (My love) Don't end (Don't end)
Now baby, let me show you what I mean.
When we're fussing and when we're fighting
All I think about is just how so enticing you are baby girl,
no matter what you do, I'll be loving you.
And it's never gonna change, never gonna change.
Pretty mama, just because we argue
don't mean that I don't pay attention to you
I think about everything we've gone through
and how I fall in love with everything you do.
From the way you tell me that it's just not fair (Just not fair)
And even when you yell, I can't help but stop and stare.
Because
When we're fussing and when we're fighting
All I think about is just how so enticing you are baby girl,
no matter what you do, I'll be loving you
And it's never gonna change, never gonna change.
I must admit that when we fight,
I can't help but get lost in your eyes
From the way you talk to how your hair falls Heh, you got me gone.
But baby girl, can we take it nice and slow, Oh yea
'cause we done came way too damn far for me to not let you know that
When we're fussing and when we're fighting
All I think about is just how so enticing you are baby girl,
no matter what you do, I'll be loving you.
And It's never gonna change, never gonna change.
When we're fussing and when we're fighting
All I think about is just how so enticing you are baby girl,
no matter what you do, I'll be loving you.
[Pre-Verse]
Calling all soldiers
This is a call
(To arm yourselves)
Sever all your ties
And become the hero
They all know you are
(You'll earn your scars)
Tell me what's worse?
Losing myself to this
Or losing you, baby.
[1st Verse]
These sleepless nights
Spent in cold remorse
Lead me, back to your embrace
(Oh so unwillingly)
I'm left with only
The memories
That were too few
And far between
[Pre-Chorus]
And now the soldier fights
And now the soldier dreams
[Chorus]
Oh sweet desolation
Look and see what you've
Done to me
Oh sweet desolation
Kiss me, kill me
Set me free.
[2nd Verse]
And I've lost sight
Through my own hesitation
I've told the world
Who's to blame
And it's you.
No matter what you say
You're not the same
You'll never own up to your faults
(Your greed will be your downfall)
[Chorus]
Oh sweet desolation
Look and see what you've
Done to me
Oh sweet desolation
Kiss me, Kill me
Set me free
[3rd Verse]
Stand tall and take your aim (Hold)
Thy soldiers will, be done (Fast)
Our war is not the same (Your guns)
This battle can't be won
[Breakdown]
You seem to think
That every word that you've spoken to me
I felt was true
You'll soon learn I won't
Forgive and forget you
[Bridge]
Baby,
You told me
I was your soldier (Soldier, Soldier)
But all the lies
You made me believe,
Now I see your deception.
I thought I could be
Your knight in shining armor
You pulled the trigger
(I held it down)
My life was in your hands
[Outro]
So this is how it ends
With our love on hold
You've left me out here all alone
I swear this could never be foretold
You spoke with words so sharp
And I let my love shine
But now I'm left to face the fear
That you will never again be mine
Where do we go from here?
I just don't know
Where did you go, my dear?
Where did you go?
You didn't shed a tear
What where you scheming?
This was my biggest fear
I must be dreaming
Those three word lies led to my demise
You didn't have to say a word
Girl, I could see it in your eyes
Bring me back to the start
Back when "baby I love you" was all we could say
Bring me back to your heart
We said we'd never ever let it end this way
No one can ever describe the feeling
The moment you realized you've lost everything you had
left
Trust!
Baby, girl
Baby, fucking, girl
My diamond, my pearl
You know you were my world
My dearest love
Just look what you have done
My only solace now lies in the barrel of this gun
To my surprise I watch you cut all ties
You didn't have to say a word
Girl, I could see it in your eyes
Bring me back to the start
Back when "baby I love you" was all we could say
Bring me back to your heart
We said we'd never ever let it end this way
Don't act like this didn't mean a thing
Don't tell them that I was just a fling
Don't throw away the memories we shared
Don't lie to me and say you didn't care
Oh, baby girl
Bring me back to the start
Back when "baby I love you" was all we could say
Bring me back to your heart
We said we'd never ever let it end this way
Liar, monster, deceiver, disgrace.
The words drip from your tongue, with such a flawless grace.
But now your veil falls and your mask has cracked.
I'll rip out that spine that you lack.
I hope you hear me scream.
Oh shit!
I won't fall prey, to your deceit.
I'll have you begging for mercy at my feet.
That pretty face, could only take you so far.
I'll show them all exactly what you are.
You were my biggest mistake.
I should have never believed in you.
We knew exactly what was at stake.
Darling, nothing you said was true.
Bitch, say one more word, I'll rip your fucking throat out.
Bitch, say one more word, I'll rip your fucking throat out.
The lips of a coward speak so well the words of the brave.
Now I'll watch you take your words to the grave.
Fuck You!
I should have seen this coming.
If only I knew. I've never known hate, until I met you.
You were my biggest mistake.
I should have never believed in you.
We knew exactly what was at stake.
Darling, nothing you said was true.
I've been dreaming, yeah, of my angel.
This can't be true.
No, it's not you!
How could I have been so blind, to not see the forest for the trees.
Now would you please come clean?
'Cause at the drop of a hat, I know you'll drop that act
and show the true colors of the demon I know you to be.
So talk me down to the ground.
Those hips and fingertips won't work this time.
Now I'll be on my way, and all you'll hear me say is
Fuck this shit.
Don't act like you have nothing to hide.
Fuck this shit.
I hope you choke on your pride.
Whoa...
They said we all sound the same.
Saying we'll never hit fame.
Thinking that this was a game.
But all their eyes are on us now.
I can't believe the lies that were spread
While I've been living in this suffocation.
We don't know when to quit
and dealing with your shit won't slow down our domination.
We do this all for you.
We'll never stop.
We do this all for you.
It's time to show them what we've got.
I'm sick of this shit.
We used our blood, sweat and tears.
We rose and showed no fear.
I've words that will make them cheer.
And I refuse to shut my mouth.
They always seem to hate on what we all create.
Thinking that they really matter.
You just won't know what to do when we bring something new
just to make your whole world shatter.
We do this all for you.
We'll never stop.
We do this all for you.
It's time to show them what we've got.
You'll never know what we've been through.
The time spent learning what we've grown into.
And all you do is speak with words so dire.
But you're just adding fuel to the fire.
With gilded lungs and silver tongues,
the world is against us.
But the incessant sounds of them running their mouths
is drowned out by the roar of the crowd.
We do this all for you.
We'll never stop.
We do this all for you.
It's time to show them what we've got.
We do this all for you.
We'll never stop.
We do this all for you.
And it's all for you.
