Black, Andy - Heroes We Were Lyrics






When we were young we knew everything
Drank from our innocence
Taught us to beg with our words
As we grow tired and jaded
The colors all faded
Fire would no longer burn
All the anger and hunger
That shapes our desires
Hanging to hope by a string
Never had thoughts of the future
Knew we'd never get back
We are the kings of our dreams

All the best laid plans
Slipped through my hands

You know we can run 'til the day that we're dead
Or stay here and fight and pretend we're not scared
Can we make it back to the heroes we were?
'Cause we can scream 'til the world has gone deaf
Fall on our knees if that's all we've got left
Can we make it back to the heroes we were?

Can we
Save this
And bring us back to the heroes we were?
Can we
Save this
And bring us back to the heroes we were?

Empires have fallen and joy can be stolen
When things are much worse than you think (Worse than you think)
The streets all have broken, my memory holding
Onto the songs that we'd sing
We started with something
But ended with nothing
Losing but praying to win (Praying to win)
Let go as we're falling
I can't hear them calling
Give in to all of our sins

All the best laid plans
Slipped through my hands

You know we can run 'til the day that we're dead
Or stay here and fight and pretend we're not scared
Can we make it back to the heroes we were?
'Cause we can scream 'til the world has gone deaf
Fall on our knees if that's all we've got left
Can we make it back to the heroes we were?

Can we
Save this
And bring us back to the heroes we were?
Can we
Save this
And bring us back to the heroes we were?

When the future's ending
They will bleed you empty
Don't let me down, don't let me down
Don't let me down
Yeah, we could make it back then
Though all we have is nowhere
Turn it around, turn it around
Turn it around
No one can find us when time has escaped us
How did we fall through the cracks?
It's empty out here
Where the world disappears
One day we'll find our way back

You know we can run 'til the day that we're dead
Or stay here and fight and pretend we're not scared
Can we make it back to the heroes we were?
'Cause we can scream 'til the world has gone deaf
Fall on our knees if that's all we've got left
Can we make it back to the heroes we were?

Can we
Save this
And bring us back to the heroes we were?
Can we
Save this
And bring us back to the heroes
Back to the heroes we were?

    "...We are the kings of our dreams..." ❣️❣️❣️

  2. d.... 5....

    Ta bonita su cancion

  3. A.... F....

    This song is beautiful, it makes me understand that Andy had other plans but they crumble on his fingers, and despite that he gave himself hope to continue feeling like crap or being the hero you were before and fighting to feel better! A fucking gem .... I love this song! ❤💪❤✨

  4. C.... ....

    His voice❤

  5. s.... o....

    "fall on our knees if that's all we've got left..can we make it back to the heroes we were..." because in the end, everyone kneels in front of the savior 😔 #iloveyou3000

  6. C.... N....

    😍🤩

  7. D.... G....

    Andy y will always be my musical hero. Just listening to your music and the music you do with the rest of BVB also makes me feel so much better! You have the voice of an angel 😇 and the screem of a sexy demon!😈

  8. N.... P....

    SO GOOOOOOOD !!!!

  9. O.... M....

    ✌...All the best laid plans slip through our hands... 🤘

  10. P.... ....

    But what if we were not the hero? what if I am a villain, I just don't understand. Please explain !

  11. J.... D....

    You are always my hero

  12. H.... ....

    so many of these songs from this album are perfect for an aimless road trip, just sayin

  13. L.... K....

    The album is great, too bad I can't buy it, because the digital album is only available for the US!!!

  14. s.... I....

    This is definitely my favorite song from the album. A masterpiece

  15. P.... S....

    Carlos Sadness Preparó la instrumental(? Suena muy loco, me encanta! :3

  16. R.... ....

    Okay so I always have to take my headphones off before I listen to this song because before it even plays it does this loud sound that literally hurts. It also does that with The Promise. I'm not sure if it's the beat drop or my headphones. Lol.

  17. J.... P....

    Wonder if this song is referring to the height of the band and metalcore. How they (bvb and other bands), we heros and now they are drifting downward as hip hop rises. Great song btw

  18. L.... L....

    just got the album for my birthday yesterday and it all awesome

  19. �.... �....

    Круто!!!

  20. G.... t....

    tal vez tu no te consideres un Héroe ERES UN GUERRERO varias veces caído QUE SIEMPRE SE A LEVANTADO POR LA REVANCHA CON MÁS FUERZA Y CORAJE QUÉ ANTES

  21. M.... R....

    J.... C....

  30. H.... M....

    When we were young we knew everything
    Straight from our innocence
    I lost a plan with our worlds
    As we grew tired and jaded
    The colors have faded
    Fire would no longer burn
    All of the anger and hunger
    The shames and desires
    Hanging our hope by a string
    Never had doubts of the future
    Knew we'd never get back
    We are the kings of our dreams

    All the best laid plans
    Slipped through my hands

    You know we can run til the day that we're dead
    Or stay here and fight and pretend we're not scared
    Can we make it back to the heroes we were?
    'Cause we can scream til the world has gone deaf
    Fall on our knees if that's all we've got left
    Can we make it back to the heroes we were?

    Can we
    Save this
    And bring us back to the heroes we were?
    Can we
    Save this
    And bring us back to the heroes we were?

    Empires have fallen and joy can be stolen
    When things are much worse than you think
    The streets all have broken, my memory holding
    On to the songs that we'd sing
    We started with something
    But ended with nothing
    Losing but praying to win
    Let go as we're falling
    I can't hear them calling
    Give in to all of our sins

    All the best laid plans
    Slipped through my hands
    You know we can run til the day that we're dead

    Fall on our knees if that's all we've got left
    Can we make it back to the heroes we were?

    Can we
    Save this
    And bring us back to the heroes we were?
    Can we
    Save this
    And bring us back to the heroes we were?

    When the future's ending
    They will bleach you empty
    Don't let me down, don't let me down
    Don't let me down
    Yeah we could make it back then
    Though all we have is nowhere
    Turn it around
    Turn it around
    Turn it around
    No one can find us when time has escaped us
    How did we fall through the cracks

    Fall on our knees if that's all we've got left
    Can we make it back to the heroes we were?

    Can we
    Save this
    And bring us back to the heroes we were?
    Can we
    Save this
    And bring us back to the heroes we were?

    When we were young we knew everything straight from our innocence
    Almost too big with our words
    As we grow tired and jaded, the colors are faded
    Fire will no longer burn
    All of the anger and hunger that shapes our desires
    Hanging to hold by a string
    Never had thoughts of the future, no we’d never get there
    We are the kings of our dreams

    All the best laid plans slip through my hands

    You know we can run till the day that we’re dead
    I’ll stay here and fight and pretend we’re not scared
    Can we make it back to the heroes we were?
    Cause we can scream till the world has gone deaf
    Fall on our knees if that’s all we got left
    Can we make it back to the heroes we were?

    Can we save this
    Bring us back to the heroes we were
    Can we save this
    And bring us back to the heroes we were

    Empires are falling and joy can’t be stolen when things are much worse than you think
    The streets are left broken, the memory holding all to the songs that we sing
    We started with something but ended with nothing, losing the praying to win
    Let go as we’re falling, I can’t hear them calling, give in to all of our sins

    All the best laid plans slip through my hands

    You know we can run till the day that we’re dead
    I’ll stay here and fight and pretend we’re not scared
    Can we make it back to the heroes we were?
    Cause we can scream till the world has gone deaf
    Fall on our knees if that’s all we got left
    Can we make it back to the heroes we were?

    Can we save this
    Bring us back to the heroes we were
    Can we save this
    And bring us back to the heroes we were

    When the future’s ending, they will plead you empty, don’t let me down, don’t let me down, don’t let me down

    Yeah, we can make it back there
    The home we had is nowhere
    Turn it around, turn it around, turn it around

    No one can find us when time has escaped us, how did we fall through the cracks
    It’s empty out there when the world disappears
    One day we’ll find our way back

    You know we can run till the day that we’re dead
    I’ll stay here and fight and pretend we’re not scared
    Can we make it back to the heroes we were?
    Cause we can scream till the world has gone deaf
    Fall on our knees if that’s all we got left
    Can we make it back to the heroes we were?

    Can we save this
    Bring us back to the heroes we were
    Can we save this
    And bring us back to the heroes we were, back to the heroes we were
