Don't tell the gods I left a mess
I can't undo what has been done
 [bad word] 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
Hero-uh-o-o-oes
O-uh-o-o-oh
We're dancing with the demons in our minds 
Hero-uh-o-o-oes O-uh-o-o-oh

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:

We are the heroes of our time
Hero-uh-o-o-oes
O-uh-o-o-oh
We're dancing with the demons in our minds 
Hero-uh-o-o-oes O-uh-o-o-oh

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

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

We are the heroes of our time
Hero-uh-o-o-oes
O-uh-o-o-oh
But we're dancing with the demons in our minds 
Hero-uh-o-o-oes O-uh-o-o-oh
We are the heroes of our time
Hero-uh-o-o-oes
O-uh-o-o-oh
But we're dancing with the demons in our minds 
Hero-uh-o-o-oes O-uh-o-o-oh

We are the heroes
