[Chorus]
It was like a nightmare
And it's pain for me
Because nobody wants to die too fast
Remember the day of grief
Now it's strange for me
I could see your face, I could hear your voice
Remember the day we met
And it's pain for me
Because nobody wants to die too fast
Remember the day we dreamt
Now it's pain for me
I could see your face, I could hear your voice

[Verse]
Can't look back, they will not come back
Don't be afraid, it's time after time
So once again, I'm hiding in my room
The peaceful times are what make us blind

[Pre-Chorus]
"See, you can't fly, if you never try"
You told me, oh, long ago
But you left the wall, outside the gate
Now more than ever, it's real
[Chorus]
It was like a nightmare
And it's pain for me
Because nobody wants to die too fast
Remember the day we dreamt
Now it's strange for me
I could see your face, I could hear your voice
Remember the day we met
And it's pain for me
Because nobody wants to die too fast
Remember the day we dreamt
And it's pain for me
I could see your face, I could hear your voice

[Refrain]
Sing for reluctant heroes
Oh, give me your strength
Your lives are too short
Sing for reluctant heroes
I wanna be brave like you

[Pre-Chorus]
"See, you can't fly, if you never try"
You told me, oh, long ago
But you left the wall, outside the gate
Now more than ever, it's real
[Chorus]
It was like a nightmare
And it's pain for me
Because nobody wants to die too fast
Remember the day we dreamt
Now it's strange for me
I could see your face, I could hear your voice
Remember the day we met
And it's pain for me
Because nobody wants to die too fast
Remember the day we dreamt
And it's pain for me
I could see your face, I could hear your voice

[Refrain]
Sing for reluctant heroes
Oh, give me your strength
Your lives are too short
Sing for reluctant heroes
I wanna be brave like you
