Heroes

LYRICS

Colder. It’s getting colder.
I don’t know how much more I can take
Lost behind the shadows of a man you never knew
Empty. I’m feeling empty.
A vacant soul. A vacant mind.
Help me. Can you help me?
Don’t waste your time by wasting mine
Look beyond the shadows of a man you thought you knew.

Your heroes left you (Left in a sea of obscurity)
Your idols failed you (Chasing a dream that ends in misery)
Your friends betrayed you (Turning their backs on recent memory)
Now all you’re left with are these dark streets.

Dying. Am I dying?
Or is this just the back of beyond?
Crying. I can’t stop crying.
I guess it’s worth the tears after all
Look beyond the shadows of a man you thought you knew.
Dreaming. Am I dreaming?
I’ve yet to wake up, so we will see.
Believing. I’ve stopped believing.
Now we call you a memory.
Lost behind the shadows of a man you thought was you.

Your heroes left you (Left in a sea of obscurity)
Your idols failed you (Chasing a dream that ends in misery)
Your friends betrayed you (Turning their backs on recent memory)
Now all you’re left with are these dark streets.

Move son! Be brave for as long you can.
March on for no tomorrow
Your heroes have all gone away
