  • Don't tell the gods I left a mess
    I can't undo what has been done
    Let's run for cover

    What if I'm the only hero left
    You better fire off your gun
    Once and forever

    He said go dry your eyes
    And live your life like there is no tomorrow son
    And tell the others
    To go sing it like a hummingbird
    The greatest anthem ever heard

    We are the heroes of our time
    But we're dancing with the demons in our minds

    We are the heroes of our time
    Heroes

    But we're dancing with the demons in our minds
    Heroes

    We are the heroes of our time
    Heroes

    But we're dancing with the demons in our minds
    Heroes

    The crickets sing a song for you
    Don't say a word don't make a sound
    It's life's creation

    I make worms turn into butterflies
    Wake up and turn this world around
    In appreciation

    He said I never left your side
    When you were lost I followed right behind
    Was your foundation

    Now go sing it like a hummingbird
    The greatest anthem ever heard
    Now sing together

    We are the heroes of our time
    Heroes

    But we're dancing with the demons in our minds
    Heroes

    We are the heroes

    (We keep dancing with the demons)
    (You could be a hero)

    Now go sing it like a hummingbird
    The greatest anthem ever heard
    Now sing together

    We are the heroes of our time
    Heroes

    But we're dancing with the demons in our minds
    Heroes

    We are the heroes of our time
    Heroes

    But we're dancing with the demons in our minds
    Heroes

    We are the heroes Writer/s: Anton Malmberg Haard Af Segerstad, Joy Deb, Linnea Deb
