the waters up to our necks now
I find it hard to breathe
you are holding tighter now
and I'm feeling warmer
now that your close to me

nobody expected this nightmare now
we all need a place to hide
this is much more then we bargained for
but I know that we'll make it through tonight

this is the day when heroes fall
empires burn and leaders follow

and if this city falls
we can hide here
we can die here
and if this planet crumbles
we can stay here
until the cavalry comes

now as you tell me your broken dreams
and as I watch you cry
I won't mention
that the walls are getting weaker
I just want to see you smile

this is the day when heroes fall
empires burn and leaders follow
this is the day when heroes fall...

and if this city falls
we can hide here we can die here
and if this planet crumbles
we can stay here
until the cavalry comes

we can put out these fires
and save the survivors
and watch the dead be raised
and we can move mountains
yeah you can move mountains

this is the day our pride will fall
our bodies burn
but that means nothing at all
I think this cave will turn to light
I think your kiss will keep me alive

and if this city falls
you can hide here we can die here
and if this planet crumbles
we can stay here
until the cavalry comes

we can stay here
until the cavalry comes

oh x2
