Lyrics Heroes - The Phenomenauts

Heroes

Some died burning on the launch pad.
Some exploding in the sky.
Some careening
through the atmosphere.
That’s the many ways they died
Then the hatch, it had a failure.
Sucking out all of their air.
So they put it
into a ballistic spin, but the chute did not deploy.
It’s everyday with wasted
lives
Whoa-
But lives well spent are far and wide
Whoa-
Grissom’s quote is very touching.
Dogs and chimps all pitching in.
To expand us through the cosmos.
Worth a million times more than we spent.
It’s everyday with wasted lives
Whoa-
But lives well spent are far and wide
Whoa-
Would it be wise if we did not explore the stars, their deaths would be in vain.
They gave their lives for all of mankind
