Songtext The last hero Alter Bridge

The last hero

Can you hear the marching? Beating of the drums?
Once again, the dogs are out for blood
Words and accusations, history revised
The time is gonna tell that you were right

Oh, how you tried
I know that you tried to save us
Save us
I remember dreaming not so long ago
That change was gonna come, I still had hope
How long must I keep waiting? Feeling so ignored
Is anything worth saving anymore?

I just don't know
But need you so

Don't let us fall again
We can fight this on our own
Who will save us in the end?
Have we lost our Last Hero?

Tyrants overtaking, intoxicate with lies
There is no escaping, not this time
The simple man receiving, defending every time
Some how still believing they are right
So hypnotized

Don't let us fall again
We can fight this on our own
Who will save us in the end?
Have we lost our Last Hero?

Tell me, where are the heroes?
No!
Tell me, where are the heroes?
No! No
Have we lost all our heroes?
No
How could it be we couldn't see?
Now we are left here to fight this on our own

Build them up to tear them down
What we've done, I'm far from proud
Chew em' up, spit em' out
In the end, who'll save us now?

Can you hear the marching? Beating of the drums
Once again, the dogs are out for blood
Words and accusations, history revised
But time is gonna tell that you were right

Don't let us fall again
We can fight this on our own
Who will save us in the end?
Have we lost our Last Hero

Have we reached the end? Are we lost, alone?
Have we still our fate? Nowhere left to go
No, it's much too late, this I hope to see
There is still a chance left for you and me
