We Love Our Heroes

A voice for the masses
 A man that could build a bridge
 We made him more than a man could be
 To say he could falter was considered sacrilege
 A hero can never be free
 Crucified by your own peers
 They once held you dear
 We love our heroes until they fall
 Then we are the first ones to cast the stone
 We love our heroes more when they die
 Then we are the first ones to mourn and cry
 Broken down and ridiculed
 Fallen off your pedestal
 We laughed about the tales of your failure
 And when our hero passed away
 We all turned around to say
 "the deepest respect for your grandeur"
 Those who have mocked you for years
 Cry crocodile tears
 We love our heroes until they fall
 Then we are the first ones to cast the stone
 We love our heroes more when they die
 Then we are the first ones to mourn and cry
 We love our heroes until they fall
 Then we are the first ones to cast the stone
 We love our heroes more when they die
 Then we are the first ones to mourn and cry
