There is no doubt today The cynics and the critics have faded dead away Every wound has healed The meaning of their struggles has now been revealed
Pre-chorus: Confetti is falling like snow Supporters are waving their signs
Chorus: It's a hero's homecoming It's a hero's homecoming It's a hero's homecoming today
They've waited all their lives For the day of rest and resolution to arrive Their heads and hands raised high The ones who went before them standing by their sides
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Underneath the smiles A melancholy weighs upon them all the while They can't forget the cost The innocence of youth and brave ones who were lost
