Blood of Heroes

The lyrics present a group that has been battered and pursued but refuses to give up. The mood is energetic and defiant: the speakers admit they are close to defeat, yet turn survival into a reason to press forward. The repeated claim that heroes never die makes their confidence sound almost like a rallying chant.

Several expressions emphasize how narrow their survival has been. “By the skin of our teeth” means they have escaped danger by a very small margin. “Angel in our pocket, Devil by our side” suggests that help and danger are both close, though the image is playful rather than clearly religious. The lines about being chased through “dead-end streets” evoke repeated setbacks, while the threat of a “kick in the teeth” signals resistance to anyone trying to stop them.

The lyrics can be heard as a celebration of courage and endurance, but they also use the language of crime, battle, and death, giving the group’s survival a reckless edge. “Blood of heroes” may suggest a shared spirit passed among brave people, or simply reinforce the song’s bold, larger-than-life tone. Whether the heroes are literal fighters or an imagined team is left open; the emphasis is on refusing to disappear.
