Sleeping with Sirens Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(We can be legends, we can be legends)
We can be legends after all
Hey woah
We can be legends after all
Hey woah
Do you remember being young
Do you remember being young
(Remember, remember)
Nothing's ever what it seems
Forget who you are, forget how to dream
I think it's time that we believe
(Remember, remember)
We can be wild, we can be free
We can be anything in life we want to be
We can move mountains, we can break walls
We can stand tall enough to fight and never fall
We can be legends after all
Hey woah
We can be legends after all
Hey woah
We can be legends after all
Do you remember growing up
Standing all alone, your back to the sun
Do you remember growing up
(Remember, remember)
Tell me how it's gonna be
If we win or lose wear your heart on your sleeve
I think it's time that we believe
(Remember, remember)
We can be wild, we can be free
We can be anything in life we want to be
We can move mountains, we can break walls
We can stand tall enough to fight and never fall
We can be legends after all
Hey woah
We can be legends after all
Hey woah
We can be legends after all
We can be legends, we can be legends
We can be legends after all
We can be legends, we can be legends
Stand up and shout it out if you want it
(Remember, remember)
Reach out and touch the sky 'cause you got it
We'll be here forever
Stand up and shout it out if you want it
(Remember, remember)
Reach out and touch the sky 'cause you got it
We'll be here forever
We can be wild, we can be free
We can be anything in life we wanna be
We can move mountains, we can break walls
We can stand tall enough to fight and never fall
We can be legends after all
Hey woah
We can be legends after all
Hey woah
We can be legends after all
Stand up and shout it out if you want it
Remember
Reach out and touch the sky 'cause you got it
We'll be here forever
