Lyrics A Hero's Lie - Grey Reverend

A Hero's Lie

Up until now, thought you were my savior
Then you set out to take me by surprise
I’m suffocating, you covered me with failures
As time went by I couldn’t feel you there
Broken Chinese dolls are not to be played with
You got your needs and baby I’ve got mine
Now we are stuck inside of these words without a reason
As time goes by I can’t feel you there
Up until now, thought you were my hero
And I don’t know how it pained you this way
But now the brushes on the drywall are counting down to zero
And as time goes by I can hear you say
You can hold everything inside
But your love has buried me alive
