Nobody's Hero

[Verse 1] Built it up, knock it down Wear your love like a crown Keep the faith in my head In my heart, in my bed Promise me, faithfully Find out what it means to be Here today, gone tomorrow Too much pain, too much sorrow Cry it out, let it bleed Wait until the waves recede Rip apart what's in my hand Dwell upon what's not been said Rue the loss of innocence No release, no recompense How long will this whole thing take? Will it bend or will it break? [Chorus] Nobody's hero Nobody's hero Nobody's hero I'm nobody's champion [Verse 2] Chant your name, sing its song Burn a fire all night long Make a protest cut that rug Anesthetized like a drug Count the cost of a new start Poisoned well, broken heart Will I stand or will I shake? Is it real or is it fake? [Chorus] Nobody's hero Nobody's hero Nobody's hero I'm nobody's champion [Bridge] No one's Idol, no one's saint I'm no one's lionheart With every kind of mess I make How can I be your guiding star? [Chorus] Nobody's hero Nobody's hero Nobody's hero I'm nobody's champion Nobody's hero Nobody's hero Nobody's hero I'm nobody's champion
