Not a 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.
I don't know too much about the future
Few still know that i was sent here at all
14 years ago into the future
But our future never came
I'm a lonely castaway somewhere in space
So what can we do
What can we lose
What can we do
Memory knows before knowing remembers
Our future never came
We're separate castaways
Somewhere in space
So what can we do
What can we do
There is no me if there's no you
I can't refuse
Oh i can't refuse
And i know somewhere in your mind is a shortcut to mine
I'm sure that somewhere in your mind is a shortcut to mine
Please say it's somewhere in your mind
Somewhere we don't mind
You are the future of the planet
All the heroes combined
You are the future of the universe
You keep it in line
14 years ago into the future
But our future never came
We're separate castaways somewhere in space
So what can we do
There is no me if there's no you
I can't refuse
Oh i can't refuse
And i know somewhere in your mind is a shortcut to mine
I know that somewhere in your mind is a shortcut to mine
I'm sure that somewhere in your mind is a shortcut to mine
Please say it's somewhere in your mind
Somewhere we don't mind
