As the curtain slowly opens
The crowd screams out there names
They're lost in the nightmare
Of fortune and fame
You give them all the glory
And raise your hands up high
There's idols on the stage
And stars in your eyes

We're not heroes, we're not your heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we won't be heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we're not your heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we're not your heroes

You've waited for this moment
And counted down the days
You saved all your money
Well, now it's time to pay
'Cause life is but a vapor
And then it's time to die
You turn us into gods
Well can you tell me why?

We're not heroes, we're not your heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we won't be heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we're not your heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we're not your heroes

As the curtain slowly close
You can hear the thunder roar
You know the end is coming
So you scream out for more
You push thru the madness
And fall down on your knees
You follow them blindly
But we hope someday you'll see

We're not heroes, we're not your heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we won't be heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we're not your heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we're not your heroes

We're not heroes, we're not your heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we won't be heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we're not your heroes anymore
We're not heroes, we're not your heroes
