Suzanne Vega
When Heroes Go Down (Acoustic Version)
[Verse 1]
When heroes go down
They go down fast
So don't expect any time to
Equivocate the past
[Verse 2]
When heroes go down
They land in flame
So don't expect any slow and careful
Settling of blame
[Bridge]
I heard you say
You look out for the feet of clay
That someone will be falling next
Without the chance for last respects
You feel the disappointment
[Verse 3]
When heroes go down
Man or woman revealed
Do you show any kind of mercy
On the battlefield?
[Bridge]
I heard you say
You look out for the feet of clay
That someone will be falling next
Without the chance for last respects
You feel the disappointment
[Verse 4]
When heroes go down
Man or woman revealed
You can't expect any kind of mercy
On the battlefield
[Outro]
When heroes go down
When heroes go down
When heroes go down
