Story Behind the Song
Inspired by the Heroes of 9/11. Poetic lyrics, rich vocal harmonies and a remarkable piano interlude make this song a signature piece for the band. A very moving creation.
Lyrics
Have you heard the heroes,
Hailing through the gloom?
Can you hear their silent voices,
Echo from the tomb?
There's a distant, rolling thunder;
The storm in coming soon.
Have you heard?
Have you seen the shadows,
Lengthen in the Vale?
Have you seen the darkness deepen,
The grip on life so frail?
Though the drums of war are sounding;
Your courage must not fail.
Have you heard?
Have you heard the heroes,
Beckon from the grave?
Have you seen the honored faces,
The martyred and the brave?
And while Death is all around you,
The Hand of God will save.
Have you heard?
Have you heard the heroes,
Hailing through the gloom?
Can you hear their silent voices,
Echo from the tomb?
There's a distant, rolling thunder;
The storm is coming soon.
Have you heard?
Have you heard?
