[Verse 1]
Out of the ruins
Out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistake this time
We are the children, the last generation (Last generation)
We are the ones they left behind
And I wonder when we're ever gonna change
Livin' under the fear, 'til nothing else remains

[Chorus]
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond
The Thunderdome

[Verse 2]
Looking for something we can rely on
There's got to be something better out there
Ooh, love and compassion
Their day is coming (Coming)
All else are castles built in the air
And I wonder when we're ever gonna change, change
Livin' under the fear, 'til nothing else remains

[Chorus]
All the children say
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond
The Thunderdome
[Bridge]
So, what do we do with our lives?
We leave only a mark
Will our story shine like a light
Or end in the dark?
Give it all or nothing

[Chorus]
We don't need another hero (Do, do, do, do, do)
We don't need to know the way home (We don't need, we don't need)
All we want is life beyond
The Thunderdome
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond
The (The) Thunderdome
