lyrics

We have come to stand
to rise or fall,
to sing or silence

What will you choose, to prove your worth?
worlds away, against all odds.

Through all the rubble and all the debris
you're calling for me
Through all the smoke and all the fire
you're calling for me
Bad day for heroes.

Under the mask, man or machine?
Fumbling in the wake of greatness
friend or foe?

We can't go back towards the light
the circle is broken.
We can only wear our scars with pride.

Through all the rubble and all the debris
you're calling for me
Through all the smoke and all the fire
you're calling for me
Bad day for heroes
