SONG FOR THE UNSUNG HEROES

Lyrics & Composition by Andreas Lodewijk Schmidt

Neon signs are calling

Heavy laughter fills the air

Subtle whispers are saying

"Hey, come, and meet us there"

Again, fighting temptations

Handed to you, on a silver plate

You stand your ground, you don’t give in, you stand tall now

You keep in control of your fate

And this is a song for the unsung heroes

Battling it out every day

For those who face the world with courage

And choose to walk the harder way

At night, alone, the shadows whisper louder

The weight, almost too much to bear

A quick escape, an easy high, could drown your sorrows

But, you know, it won’t erase your despair

And here is a song for the unsung heroes

battling it out every day

For those who face the world with courage

And choose to walk the harder way

You’re not alone, though it may feel that way

So many stand there, where you stay

Heroes in silence, some do remain

But there’s no shame in bearing this pain
