[Verse 1]
Took a shot in the dark
Though the aim was true
Still it missed the mark
As we wait for a hero we can't find

Now I know, now I realize
It's a hard line
Once you cross, you're on your own
But I won't lie, I'm not satisfied
We can't wait much longer

[Chorus 1]
When your heroes turn to the enemy
And there's nothing left to hold
When your heroes give only apologies
I won't deny, it leaves me cold

[Verse 2]
Once again, you let us fall
Still you ease our minds and assured us all
"In the end
Everything's going to be alright"

But they won't, now I realize
These are hard times, we can't fight them on our own
But I won't lie, I'm not satisfied
Who will save tomorrow?
[Chorus]
When your heroes turn to the enemy
And there's nothing left to hold
When your heroes give only apologies
I won't deny, it leaves me cold

[Bridge]
Hope we're still alive, still alive, oh
Hope we're still alive, still alive in the end

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Now I know, now I realize
These are hard times, we can't fight them on our own
But I won't lie, I'm not satisfied
Who will save tomorrow?

[Chorus]
When your heroes turn to the enemy
And there's nothing left to hold
When your heroes give only apologies
I won't deny, it leaves me cold

When your heroes turn to the enemy
And there's nothing left to hold
When your heroes give only apologies
I won't deny, it leaves me cold
[Outtro]
Hope we're still alive, still alive, oh
Hope we're still alive
I will never deny you again
