False Idols Fall

(album: Wake The Dead - 2005)

(Your time is up!)
We've been counting down your days.
Going over every false (thing you say).
We wish it could be different,
Wished you stayed the same.
Tearing down our idols,
Living life (our own way).

Taking the chance to say:
All my heroes are dead.
All my heroes are dead.

Were we too blind to see
You were only human like me?
We can't help but feel
Empty words,
They're all you gave.

Struggling to take back our days.
They build you up to watch you fall.
They build you up to watch you fall.
Can't you see?
They can't be what you want.
You build them up to watch them fall.

Where did we lose control?
We thought it'd last forever.
Where did we lose control?
We thought it'd last forever.
We thought it'd last forever.

We come and count away your days.
Our heroes aren't what they used to be; (our idols fall).
Our heroes aren't what they used to be.
(Our idols fall away!)
