 Day by Bmday, we have lost our edge
 Don't you Dknow? Forgotten is the life we led
 Now it Bmseems you don't care what the risk is
 The Epeaceful times have made us blind
 Can't look Bmback, they will not come back
 Can't be aDfraid, it's time after time
 Once aBmgain I'm hiding in my room
 The Apeaceful times have made us blind
[PRE-CHORUS]
 So Dyou can't fly if you never try
 BmYou told me, oh, long ago
 But you Dleft the wall
 Out side the gate
 So Bmmore than ever, It's real
[CHORUS]
 It was like a Bmnightmare
 It's Gpainful for me
 Because Dnobody wants to Adie too fast
 Remember the Bmday of grief
 Now it's Gstrange for me
 I could Dsee your face
 I could Ahear your voice
 Remember the Bmday we met
 It's Gpainful for me
 Because Dnobody wants to Adie too fast
 Remember a Bmday we dreamt
 Now it's Gstrange for me
 I could Dsee your face
 I could Ahear your voice

[INTRO]

[VERSE 1]

Day by day, we have lost our edge

Don't you know? Forgotten is the life we led

Now it seems you don't care what the risk is

The peaceful times have made us blind

Can't look back, they will not come back

Can't be afraid, it's time after time

Once again I'm hiding in my room

The peaceful times have made us blind

[PRE-CHORUS]

So you can't fly if you never try

You told me, oh, long ago

But you left the wall

Out side the gate

So more than ever, It's real

[CHORUS]

It was like a nightmare

It's painful for me

D A

Because nobody wants to die too fast

Remember the day of grief

Now it's strange for me

I could see your face

I could hear your voice

Remember the day we met

It's painful for me

D A

Because nobody wants to die too fast

Remember a day we dreamt

Now it's strange for me

I could see your face

I could hear your voice

[INTERVAL]

Bm D

[POST-CHORUS]

Song for reluctant heroes

Oh Give me your strength

Our life is so short

Song for the reluctant heroes

I wanna be brave like you

From my heart

Song for the reluctant heroes

Oh Give me your strength

Our life is so short

Song for the reluctant heroes

I wanna be brave like you

[VERSE 2]

Can't look back, they will not come back

Can't be afraid, it's time after time

Once again I'm hiding in my room

The peaceful times have made us blind

So you can't fly if you never try

You told me, oh, long ago

But you left the wall

Outside the gate

So more than ever, It's real

[CHORUS]

It was like a nightmare

It's painful for me

Because nobody wants to die too fast

Remember the day of grief

Now it's strange for me

Because nobody wants to die too fast

Remember a day we dreamt

Now it's strange for me

I could see your face

I could hear your voice

Because nobody wants to die too fast

Remember the day of grief
