Out of the ruins
Out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistake this time

We are the children
The last generation (the last generation)
We are the ones they left behind

And I wonder when we are ever gonna change, change
Living under the fear 'til nothing else remains

We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome

Looking for something
We can rely on
There's got to be something better out there

Mm, love and compassion
Their day is coming (coming)
All else are castles built in the air

And I wonder when we are ever gonna change, change
Living under the fear 'til nothing else remains

All the children say

We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome

So what do we do with our lives?
We leave only a mark
Will our story shine like a light
Or end in the dark?
Is it all or nothing?

We don't need another hero (hero)
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond Thunderdome

All the children say

We don't need another hero (we don't need another hero)
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome
