Lyrics

Here's To The Fallen Heroes
(Copyright 2024 WGiakas)

My father was one of many
Who gave it his all for his family
He didn't always hear thanks for his efforts
But he was there as a man and a parent

I hear the call of the spirits whispering names
And though he wasn't a priest or scholar
We all could be standing taller
Proud to cheer for our fallen heroes

Look up in the clouds I see your face
The wisps dissolve and I'm stuck in place
Never forget the home spun greats
Well here's to the fallen heroes

Sometimes I feel it's hard to carry on
Just want to go back to where we start
I dream of your smile and your warm embrace
Well here's to the fallen heroes

My buddy's mother was on her own
Taking care of her kids as a single mom
Working three jobs and carried the full burden
Got scrambled in drugs and one day was gone

Say what you want
But her heart was strong
She loved her kids and taught them right from wrong
He'll never forget what she did
For her family right to the end

(X2)
Look up in the clouds I see your face
The wisps dissolve and I'm stuck in place
Never forget the home spun greats
Well here's to the fallen heroes

Sometimes I feel it's hard to carry on
Just want to go back to where we start
I dream of your smile and your warm embrace
Well here's to the fallen heroes


Well here's to the fallen heroes

Here's to the fallen heroes
