Hero |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| That’s me with a cape |
| Everybody telling me they don’t wanna play games |
| So I lost that dream and I lost my faith |
| And I lost my tears and lost my way |
| I was waiting for a man with no face |
| I was waiting for someone to come and save me 'cause I hated me |
| Maybe I can be somebody other than me |
| Fuck that the decisions don’t |
| Now I’ll take a second to breathe |
| 'Cause I’ll be the hero now here |
| And you’re gonna hear everyone of us scream |
| «We ain’t gonna leave, we ain’t gonna leave,» |
| These are the voices of children they mean it |
| They feel left behind in the class |
| While they’re waiting for Superman these kids are just like me |
| I look now with the fathers at the bottom of the bottle |
| He can be my hero tomorrow |
| That’s wishful thinking, now I know how to manage my anger |
| When the cops come banging |
| «Is everything OK? |
| The neighbor heard glass break and you were yelling, throwing vain things,» |
| And I tell him |
| «Yeah, you weren’t gonna change anything anyway, turn around and walk away!» |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| But I won’t |
| I won’t |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| Give up everything you wanted |
| For the life you never wanted |
| That sounds familiar don’t it |
| See mothers working two jobs |
| And these soldiers would come home |
| Nothing left |
| Post-dramatic stress |
| Nothing less than the heroes we talk about |
| What we lay to bed, when we were little kids can I be like them? |
| 20 years later |
| 30 years old |
| I wish I was somebody’s hero |
| Just not my own, if I would’ve known, I would’ve been so much more than |
| The result of my failures |
| Come to think |
| Come to doubt and think I succeeded at anything |
| I’m a fucking veteran, |
| I’ve been knocked down so many times shit don’t hurt |
| Then I see my wife, my mother, my father, my brothers would not only come |
| Maybe I’m the one that they look up to a point |
| You understand a mother’s gonna come through |
| And there’s a million of us just like me |
| Who got a bed but no place to sleep |
| And we can watch these streets |
| Every heartbeat today for me, I don’t need your sympathy |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| But I won’t |
| I won’t |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| But I won’t |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| But I won’t |
| I won’t |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| But I won’t |
| I won’t |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| But I won’t |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
| But I won’t |
| I won’t |
| Everybody’s waiting on a hero |
