Song’s the second single on album"Us and Them". It reached number 4 on the U.S. Mainstream Rock chart.
Song is about past heroes, who sold themselves or simply disilussioned Brent and probably many more.
[Verse 1]
Stare in wonder, who's here to bring you down?
Find your martyr, I'm sure you've made the crown
So light a fire under my bones
So when, I die for you, at least I'll die alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Ain't nothing for me to end up like this
There's no comparing me this time
[Chorus]
All my heroes have now become ghosts
Sold their sorrow to the ones who paid the most
All my heroes are dead and gone
But down inside of me, they still live on
[Verse 2]
Dark devotion in a vacant paradise
Shows no emotion to a willing sacrifice
You can put a man on trial, but you can't make the guilty pay
And you can cage an animal, but you can't take away the rage
[Pre-Chorus]
Ain't nothing for me to end up like this
There's no comparing me this time
[Chorus]
All my heroes have now become ghosts
Sold their sorrow to the ones who paid the most
All my heroes are dead and gone
But down inside of me, they still live on
[Chorus]
All my heroes have now become ghosts
Sold their sorrow to the ones who paid the most
All my heroes are dead and gone
But down inside of me, they still live on
[Outro]
They're all dead and gone
