Angels and Heroes

We are the poets, we are the dreamers

We are the soldiers, we are the screamers

We are the fallen to rise again

We are the lovers, we are cynics

We are the hours, we are the minutes

We are all friends in the end

So why be alive if you don't follow your every dream

Reach up to Heaven and stand for what you believe

We don't need wings to be angels

We don't need reasons to be right

Your love makes us all better

That who we really are

Angels and heroes at heart

We are the givers, we are receivers

We are confessors, we are believers

We are the strange familiar face

We are afraid and so we follow

We're underpaid and so we borrow

We mine for tears, but much too late

So why can't we open our hearts, open our minds

Forgiving is easy for You will come if we open our eyes

We don't need wings to be angels

We don't need reasons to be right

Your love makes us all better

That who we really are

We don't need sleep to be dreamers

We don't need to have tears in our eyes

Your love makes us all better

That's who really are

Angels and heroes at heart

I know it seems easier to run and hide

And bury our emotions in the dark of night

But it's worth the fight

Worth the fight

Just aim for the light

We don't need wings to be angels

We don't need reasons to be right

Your love makes us all better

That who we really are

Angels and heroes at heart
