Versuri All My Heroes Are Dead
You gotta admit Life magazine made 1968 look
great,
My father said it sucked, everybody died.
All the troops you couldn't save, no one knew how
to be brave,
He said sometimes you were afraid to turn your
radio on.
It was enough to make you quit that peacenick
scene.
Well I heard about leaders, yeah I hear they're
no longer around
Cause peace was abandoned, and bravery hanged in
his town.
And they passed down a sentence
For building on the beauty of some dream.
All my heroes are dead, I got them in my head,
saying
Never again, never a war, no more fighting.
So I'll stay true to them, and they'll come home
again,
I'll carry the light, follow the dream, I'll
remember.
The '68 convention was a singing the times they
are a-changing,
Well I guess they a-changed back.
Oh I miss those peaceful folk, love and humor
when they spoke, hey
Phil Ochs you still sound great, should've stuck
around to hear it.
They say that compact disc makes songs come true.
But Phil I never expected that I'd miss you like
a friend,
Cause I never expected that we would be marching
again.
And the soldiers of peace would tumble from this
life as in a war.
All my heroes are dead, and all the books I read,
Said This is greed, this is wrong, fight your war
at home.
So I'll stay true to them, and they'll come home
again,
I'll carry the light, follow the dream, I'll
remember.
So back to the present passion, romance, love, or
simply put a lack thereof.
Shall we go on?
I don't take it personally, it's our post-modern
history,
You know since Nixon was impeached it's just been
hard to commit,
So we cast our allegance left and right.
But I always believed that our souls would come
through.
So I never expected that you'd take her home with
you.
And I never detected, how hardened and not sorry
you could be.
Don't you know?
All our heroes are dead, we got ourselves
instead.
And oh my friend, all your lies, they won't do
you.
You gotta stay true to them, and they'll come
home again,
I miss them too, I miss them too, you know I miss
them
More than I love you.
