Never The Heroes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Like a cobra they will strike
And like lions caged we'll fight
We were taken not by choice
They put anger in our voice
We were fearless but so afraid
Though in our hearts we still felt pain
We're on fire but on a leash
We only ever wanted peace
Never the heroes
We were made to fight
Never the heroes
We were just sacrificed
At war
Like a demon leads the youth
We are terrible in truth
No time to falter, no turning back
When we come under attack
There is no question as with a friend
We have our honor to defend
We're on fire but on a leash
We only ever wanted peace
Never the heroes
We were made to fight
Never the heroes
We were just sacrificed
At war
At war
We are together till the end
We have our honor to defend
Never the heroes
We were made to fight
Never the heroes
We were just sacrificed
Never the heroes
(We were never the heroes)
We were made to fight
(We were made to fight)
Never the heroes
We were sacrificed
At war
