Look, the homeless on the street

The little shoeblack on his knees

A good heart and the daily fighter

Policemen, gangster and the priest

Wheelchair woman on her feet

Chinese smoker with his dragon lighter

They're all fighting through their lives

Against their enemies

Reaching out for the light

Everyone can be a hero

We are, we are

Sometimes up then down to zero

We are, we are

Heroes, heroes

Look this old man's only teeth

When he smiles underneath

Searching for some food on the ground

The musician at the store

Selling his guitar for naught

It's rent that matters not the sound

They're all fighting through their lives

Against their enemies

Reaching out for the light

Everyone can be a hero

We are, we are

Sometimes up then down to zero

We are, we are

Heroes

Everyone can be a hero

We are, we are

Sometimes up then down to zero

We are, we are

Heroes

Everyone can be a hero

We are, we are

Sometimes up then down to zero

We are, we are

Heroes, heroes
