The Last Fallen Hero Songtext
Oh, the cowards came by morning
And attacked without a warning
Leaving flames and death and chaos in our streets
In the middle of this fiery hell
Brave heroes fell

In the skies of Pennsylvania
On a plane bound for destruction
With the devil and his angels at the wheel
They never reached their target on the ground
Brave heroes brought it down

This is a righteous cause,
So without doubt or pause
I will do what my country asks of me
Make any sacrifice
We'll pay whatever price
So the children of tomorrow can be free
Lead on red, white and blue
And we will follow you
Until we win the final victory
God help us do our best
We will not slack nor rest
'Til the last fallen hero rests in peace

Now the winds of war are blowing
And there's no way of knowing
Where this bloody path we're traveling will lead
We must follow 'til the end
Or face it all again

And make no mistake about it,
Write it, preach it, talk it, shout it
Across the mountains and the deserts and the seas
The blood of innocence and shame
Will not be shed in vain

This is a righteous cause,
So without doubt or pause
I will do what my country asks of me
Make any sacrifice
We'll pay whatever price
So the children of tomorrow can be free
Lead on red, white and blue
And we will follow you
Until we win the final victory
God help us do our best
We will not slack nor rest
'Til the last fallen hero rests in peace

God help us do our best
We will not slack nor rest
'Til the last fallen hero rests in peace
