Hero

about

I originally wrote this song for an indie movie when I was 26. The movie flopped but it's still streaming somewhere in Asia. This is an updated shorter version. I hope you like it!

lyrics

I walk down this lonely road
Begging for advice
Trying to understand
The pieces of my life
Living a masquerade
I live my life on the run
I've only myself to blame
For the woman I have become
And as I travel on
I find myself looking back
Searching my memories
I've many questions to ask

On social media
I dress myself like a hero
But look at the life I've led
Before you place that crown on my head
Look at what I say
'Cause I don't feel like a hero
Why can't I believe
What others say they see in me

I'm lost with a restless heart
Been drifting for so long
Trying to find my way
Oh where do I belong?
Running from yesterday
That's all there seems to be
The faster I run away
The closer I get to me
Heading back home again
I know there's no turning back
A loving face waits for me
With many questions to ask

On social media
I dress myself like a hero
But look at the life I've led
Before you place that crown on my head
Look at what I say
'Cause I don't feel like a hero
Why can't I believe
What others say they see in me

[Guitar Solo]

Hero, hero, hero, I wanna be a hero
Hero, hero, hero, I wanna be a hero
Hero, hero, hero, I wanna be a hero
