Lyrics House of Heroes

House of Heroes

We Were Giants

I was counting on the chemicals

I was waiting on a miracle

Holding back what was inevitable

Don't go, don't go

A ray of hope is never tangible

Change is almost imperceptible

A great wave that's immeasurable

But I know, I know

We were giants once

Hold on to me

Hold on to us

Hold on to me

We were giants once

I still believe

Hold on to us

We can still be

We were giants once

I remember how it used to be

We had a confidence, a certainty

Like we were in the graces permanently

Is that so, is that so?

Like a belief that you never see

Till you decide that it has to be

That's the way it is with you and me

And I know, I know

We were giants once

Hold on to me

Hold on to us

Hold on to me

We were giants once

I still believe

Hold on to us

We can still be

We were giants once

Oh, don't let go, oh

We were giants once

Oh, don't let go, oh

We were giants once

I was counting on the chemicals

I was waiting on a miracle

Holding back what was inevitable

Giants once

Hold on to me

Hold on to us

Hold on to me

We were giants once

I still believe

Hold on to us

We can still be

We were giants once

Hold on to me

Hold on to us

Hold on to me

We were giants once

I still believe

We can still be

Hold on to us

We were giants once
