Lyrics
Hero
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Looking for salvation, I'm blind
Thought contamination, I find
Greedy spiders talk to me in my head
I think I'm drifting
I'm in the big machine, my next hero's calling
Who knows what he may bring to me?
Government intrusion, again
Cultural illusion, offends
Grain of sand in traffic jam, and I'm late
I think I'm drifting
I'm in the big machine, my next hero's calling
Who knows what she may bring to me?
See the demons all around and sometimes
I feel like one of them, feel the rage is building inside
I walk to the final edge, I'm dreaming
I'm in the big machine, my next hero's calling
Who knows what he may bring to me?
