out of the ruins

out from the wreckage

can't make the same mistake this time

we are the children

the last generation [bracketed]

we are the ones they left behind

and i wonder when we

are ever gonna change change

living under the fear

til nothing else remains

we don't need another hero

we don't need to know the way home

all we want is life beyond the thunderdome

looking for something

we can rely on

there's gotta be something better out there

love and compassion

their day is coming [bracketed]

all else are castles built in the air

and i wonder when we

are ever gonna change change

living under the fear

til nothing else remains

all the children say

we don't need another hero

we don't need to know the way home

all we want is life beyond the thunderdome

so what do we do with our lives

we leave only a mark

will our story shine like a light

or end in the dark

is it all or nothing

we don't need another hero

we don't need to know the way home

all we want is life beyond thunderdome

all the children say

[bracketed]

we don't need another hero

[bracketed]
