 x1
 The  show was over  it's all  in the name
 It  never was before  but this  ain't the same
 So try  to imagine  a time  and a place
 Where the enemy won  and the hero  was slain
 And poetic justice burns in the minds
 Of five diying soldiers on the front lines
 With nobody's singing in nobody's ears
 No one's disappointed, nobody hears
 I know a lady, promise her name
 The price of her visit suffering and pain
 And we gladly waited and we gladly paid
 We watched the sun rise, she never came
 An electric current moves us around
 We sank to our knees to worship the sound
 But nobody told us that we'd rise again
 Imagine a hero unable to win
 Imagine a hero unable to win
