[00:20.45]I heard a human voice who sang like no one else
[00:24.17]I heard a proud lady singing loud
[00:27.09]
[00:27.77]Lived her life as she liked, didn't give a damn
[00:31.13]But soon she found she was underground and wasted
[00:35.90]
[00:37.57]I watched her hitting notes as she strutted stage
[00:41.70]Her body shook oh, she did her stuff
[00:44.99]screamed She and quake, give and take, maybe took too much
[00:47.90]If you take the smooth you gotta take the rough
[00:51.72]Why do you have to die to be a hero
[00:54.69]It's a shame a legend begins at its end
[00:58.30]Why do you have to die if you're a hero
[01:00.74]
[01:01.55]When there's still so many things to say unsaid
[01:04.90]I heard a man's guitar electrify a crowd
[01:07.50]
[01:09.09]I felt the sound shower 'round
[01:11.95]
[01:12.56]he And would take you with him where no music's been before
[01:15.86]As you merged the power surge together
[01:22.79]His music knew no limits if you were in it's wake
[01:26.15]You had no choice, no, but hear its voice
[01:29.45]you And would listen hypnotised, and in a dream
[01:31.23]
[01:32.82]But once so strong survive or become weak
[01:36.09]Why do you have to die to be a hero
[01:39.26]It's a shame a legend begins at its end
[01:42.66]Why do you have to die if you're a hero
[01:46.05]When there's still so many things to say unsaid
[01:49.03]
[02:07.30]If you gaze across timeless years you'll find them always there
[02:14.23]
[02:20.49]And many gods will join the list compiled with dying care
[02:26.81]
[02:34.76]Hungry mouths are waiting to bite the hand that feeds
[02:41.18]
[02:48.07]And so the living dead carry on immortal deeds
[02:55.02]
[03:08.34]I saw on silver screen an actor's rise to fame
[03:12.38]But fast car user lose
[03:15.43]That legend's born from death and that is such a shame
[03:19.09]'cos every year new ones appear
[03:22.29]Why do you have to die to be a hero
[03:25.46]It's a shame a legend begins at its end
[03:28.81]Why do you have to die if you're a hero
[03:32.35]When there's still so many things to say unsaid.
