We Don't Need Another Hero

Out of the ruins, out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistake this time
We are the children, the last generation
We are the ones they left behind

And I wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear till nothing else remains

We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome

Looking for something we can rely on
There's got to be something better out there
Love and compassion, their day is coming
All else are castles built in the air

And I wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear till nothing else remains

All the children say, "We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome"

So what do we do with our lives?
We leave only a mark
Will our story shine like a life
Or end in the dark? Is it all or nothing?

We don't need another hero, hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome

All the children say, "We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome
