Losing our heroes_
click here for video
V1
Legends alive in their own time
Gone while they were soaring in their prime
Never enough time
We lost you and thought
that it wasn't fair
We put you on a pedestal
Cause we needed you there
Now an empty chair
CH1
Reach for the stars they say
Before they have to go away
How long till we realize
Fortune and fame
was their disguise
Strung out
Just like you and I
Burned out
Just under different skies
V2
You should to be admired for what you did
The crowds that you inspired
By how you live
So much to give
But they laid you to rest
While you were still alive
The moment your social rating took a dive
They only criticize
CH2
Reach for the stars they say
Before they have to go away
How long till we realize
Fortune and fame
Was their disguise
Strung out
Just like you and I
Burned out
Just under different skies
BRIDGE
Thoughts became voice
You suddenly find
You have no choice
But to run and hide
There comes a time in everyone's life
When the best aren't on the stage any more
We're losing our heroes.
Piano movement
CH3
We all wanted to be like you
Live the same and act like you
Have what you have
And see what you see
Would life be any better for me
Turns out.... it's just not true
You need to just be you.
V3
Reach for the stars that you can really touch
The people in your life
You love so much
And mean so much to you
Real heroes will never say its true
Dad never did
Nor Mom, who was the glue
But we all knew
CH4
Reach for the stars they say
Before they have to go away
How long till we realize
Our similarities in their lives
Strung out
Just like you and I
Burned out
Just under different skies
Burned out
Just under different skies |
