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 the cynics we're 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's 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's 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 we really are angels and heroes at heart
Oh I know it seems easier to run and hide and bury your 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 is who we 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 and that is who we are angels and heroes
Have you seen my son not too tall five eight she held up a colour copy photograph from his wedding day and this is his pregnant wife carrying his last dream he walked down 46 floors before he felt the rush the rush of gasoline
I can feel the pain looking in their eyes but I don't know gone without goodbye if I could reach the sky I'd bring him right back to your arms though I haven't seen your son he's forever in my life
And have you seen my little girl she's got curly black hair she took this Raggedy Anne Doll everywhere last I saw her over there then I heard a choir of screams and a speeding van I watched his tears pour down a father's last attempt at being a rational man
For I can feel the pain look into his eyes but I don't know gone without goodbye if I could reach the sky I'd bring her right back to your arms though I haven't seen your girl she's forever in my life
And have you seen my faith it can run and it can hide jesus mend this breaking heart of mine it keeps our love alive
I can feel the pain look into my eyes but I don't know gone without goodbye if I could reach the sky I'd try to turn the world around so that we could see the face and forever stay alive
