Ted Stilson - I have been playing music now for 35 years. I started when I was 12. Music has always been an escape for me from the trials and tribulations of everyday life. In the past few years I have been trying my hand at writing.
Story behind the song
Like many Americans I was devastated on September 11, 2001. I wrote this song 3 days later as a tribute to those we lost on 9-11
Lyrics
Fallen Heroes
When I heard the news I cried.
Many watched as they went inside.
Never more shall they appear.
But in our hearts, we hold them dear,
Fallen Heroes
Fallen Heroes hear our cries
As we lift our voices high above
In our time of deepest need,
You gave your lives, so willingly.
Fallen Heroes hear our cries.
Like an eagle soaring high above
A grateful nation stands with pride
“Cause Fallen Heroes never die.
With your names upon our hearts
Fighting onward we’ll do our part
To show the world how much you cared
How much you gave, how much you bared
Fallen heroes
Fallen Heroes hear our cries
As we lift our voices high above
In our time of deepest need,
You gave your lives, so willingly.
Fallen Heroes hear our cries.
Like an eagle soaring high above
A grateful nation stands with pride
Fallen Heroes hear our cries
As we lift our voices high above
In our time of deepest need,
You gave your lives, so willingly.
Fallen Heroes hear our cries.
Like an eagle soaring high above
A grateful nation stands with pride
“Cause Fallen Heroes never die.
