Heroes

We are not children any more

The fists you made they are come bashing at your door

Your legacy is waiting in the wings

And there's something so familiar in the hunger that we bring

We don't want to be like you, don't want to live like you

Learn by our own mistakes, thank you

Forcing time and pushing through

[Chorus:]

You are not our heroes anymore

Dim the lights the time is come

Into the ring the father and the son

Sown in sweat and passion long ago

And now the blood on our hands is the same as our own

And the man has the skill and the man has the power

But the boy has the will to win and so much time

[Chorus:]

You are not our heroes anymore

If you knew then what you know now to be true

You never would have started this whole chain we're going through

And you love us now but you hate us still

And we hate you now but we love you still

Ch: You are not our heroes anymore

You are not my mother, you are not my father

You are not our heroes anymore
