Lyrics

Hero

Pleasure A hostile architect Feeding on pieces of skin from the nape of my neck Gonna go to Philly Maybe New Orleans too That's what a heart with no rhythm to beat to would do Angel Let's just be easy now It's not like it was it's gone sour Angry and loud And I tried to be useful Hammer the nail in Building a drum of resentment from the base to the brim Oh hero Quiet and nameless Restless and aimless Dragging your feet with you eyes half asleep again Denim Lapis lazuli Tested by god as the person you're destined to be And I know it's been hard Fighting a fighting chance Looking for corners to hide in the endless expanse Oh hero Quiet and nameless Restless and aimless Dragging your feet with you eyes half asleep again Spirit Trapped in the matrix Alone in your spaceship Slipping away from the plans that you came with Only to find they were hopeless in the end
