I stopped going to work
Yesterday
While people around me
Went their separate ways
It seems the country I know
Isn't the same
Like after 911
The world has changed
But now this fight is different
Though the pain is the same
Cause the first - res-ponders
Have to beat a deadly strain
Now we need the Everyday hero's, fighting a different war
Civilians on the front line, without capes or carrying swords
Always facing trauma
Like it's another day
Those amazing people
Are key to our fate
The ones we lean on
Day to day
Determined to win
As long as its takes
Now we need to come together
While we stay in place
I know it's not easy
But we'll find our way
Yeah, we need the Everyday hero's, more than ever before
Civilians on the front line, might be your neighbor next door
And all the brave res-ponders - taking care of us all
The Everyday hero's, without capes or carrying swords
Yeah New York, Chicago, Boston & LA
All around globe, there's so much at stake
But still our first - res-ponders pave the way
To let us live, life again. Let us live life again
Now when this fight is over
And the pain goes away
All these first - res-ponders
They deserve the biggest parade
For all the Everyday hero's
The Everyday hero's
Yeah, the Everyday hero's
The Champions of us all
