Lyrics House of Heroes

House of Heroes

Relentless

7:00 am on Circle Street

Sprinklers ring out a symphony

All the kings and pawns off to work for their perfect lawns

But me, I'm still dreaming of Sandy

Maybe I'll spin out to her side of town

Or maybe bum a ride with Bunny when his parents aren't around

Try in vein you may

You know we are the same

And when you call me name

Rebels we become

In tracks where lions run

Red beneath the raging sun

Like wildfires we burn relentlessly

The mexicanos stare us down

Dogs are barking on Sandy's side of town

I keep it cool all the way to her front porch

Her brother growls behind a hangover

And I can smell her hair already, yeah

The summer started when our feet crossed the open door

We are the singers of the songs

The weakest are the strong

Nothing is right, but nothings wrong

Heroes we become

In tracks where lions run

Red beneath the raging sun

Like wildfires we burn relentlessly

Our faith is small but it is strong

Enough to carry on

Though we are poor we shall not want

Rebels we become

In tracks where young lions run

Red beneath the raging sun

Like wildfires we burn, we burn

Heroes we become

Where saints and sinners are one

Red the raging sun

Like sons of earth we yearn, we yearn

Like kings of men we learn, we learn

Like wildfires we burn relentlessly

Relentlessly
