Out of the ruins
Out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistake this time
We are the children, last generation
We are the ones they left behind
And I wonder when we're ever gonna change it
Living under the fear 'til nothing else remains

We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome

Looking for something we can rely on
There's got to be something better out there
Love and compassion, their day is coming
All else are castles built in the air
And I wonder when we're ever gonna change it
Living under the fear 'til nothing else remains
All the children say

We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome

So what do we do with our lives
We leave only a mark
Will our story shine like a light
Or end in the dark
Is it all or nothing

---- Instrumental Interlude ----

We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome

All the children say
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond thunderdome
