On the hills, where you swore,
We’d be heroes for the day.
You’re still dead in your grave.

In the sky there were flames,
As the bullets ricocheted,
You’re still dead in your grave,
You were heroes for the…

In the flames we just burn,
In the ashes we were saved.

In the sky there were flames,
In the sky there were flames,
In the sky there were flames,

In the flames, we just burned.
