Nobody’s Hero - The Heavy

Built it up knock it down

Wear you 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,

dewll 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?

Nobody’s hero

Nobody’s hero

Nobody’s hero

I’m nobody’s champion

Chant your name, sing its song

Burn a fire all night long

Make a protest cut that rug

Anaesthetised 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?

Nobody’s hero

Nobody’s hero

Nobody’s hero

I’m nobody’s champion

No one’s Idol, no one’s Saint

I’m no one’s Lion Heart

With every kind of mess I make

How can I be you guiding star?

Nobody’s hero

Nobody’s hero

Nobody’s hero

I’m nobody’s champion
