Heroes

The kids in the hundreds tomorrow will march through the dark
They’re fighting someone else’s war
They’ll have so many stories to tell
In exchange for a hero’s farewell
I wish I could, I wish I could make you return
And what if I’ll never discern as you walk to the toll of the bell
You’ll be fighting for our heaven with hell
And you don’t understand
Why no one else can see

Your blood on me, and my blood on you
wants to make you bleed, the only thing I wouldn’t do

And you know, heroes are meant to survive
So much harder to love when alive
Walk with the devil in your head
You would think you were better off dead
And you don’t understand
Why no one else can see

Your blood on me, and my blood on you
wants to make you bleed, the only thing I wouldn’t do
Where can you go?
(Fighting, fighting, fight away)
Where can you go?
(Fighting, fighting, fight away)
We fight, we earn, we never learn
And through it all the heroes fall

I wish there was a way to give you a hand to hold
‘Cause you don’t have to die in your glory
Die to never grow old

Your blood on me, and my blood on you
wants to make you bleed, the only thing I wouldn’t do
Where can you go?
(Fighting, fighting, fight away)
Where can you go?
(Fighting, fighting, fight away)
We fight, we earn, we never learn
And through it all the heroes fall
