Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

What goes up must come down
Yet my feet don't touch the ground
Seeing the world spinning upside down
A mighty crash without a sound
I can feel your every rage
Step aside I'll turn the page
Breaking through your crazy maze
Like a laser beam my eyes on you

Watch me rule the night away
Watch me save the day
Feel my storm is getting close
Heading your way

Sonic heroes
Sonic heroes
Bind you confine you defying your reign

Sonic heroes
Sonic heroes
Setting the stage for a hero's parade

I won't even hesitate
A second left to alter fate
You try to strike but a bit too late
I got you hooked by my own bait

Watch me rule the night away
Watch me save the day
Feel my storm is getting close
Heading your way

Sonic heroes
Sonic heroes
Bind you confine you defying your reign

Sonic heroes
Sonic heroes
Setting the stage for a hero's parade

You can bet there ain't no doubt
As the words spill from the mouth of a hero
I can chase another day
Fight you all the way
Like a hero

And together we stand tall no matter how
No one can bring us down...

Sonic heroes
Sonic heroes
Bind you confine you defying your reign

Sonic heroes
Sonic heroes
Setting the stage for a hero's parade

Sonic heroes

Sonic heroes
Give us a reason we'll be on our way
