Where are the heroes In my time of need? Is my crying abandoned or have they gone? oh no
They just tend to stand Out of the rain Thinking but not acting like they're not to blame
Fallen and crawlin' A fight to stand up Mermory still haunts me In the dead of the night
Over and over I felt so small But one day I'll be stronger And you better watch out
Chorus: I will overcome In violence there's silence, oh no It can't be undone I will overcome Knowing that I'm not the only one I will overcome It's the only way to carry on
Where are the saviours? Afraid of the toll Sorry, do my nine inch nails slash your soul?
Such heroes Throwing stones straight at the one who is standing alone
Twisting and turning It's always the same The truth is never honest when you're to blame
Pushing and pulling and never give in One day I wish you'd see you're not, so beautiful within
