Hero

No one sits with him, he doesn't fit in

But we feel like we do when we make fun of you

Cause you want to belong do you go along

Cause his pain is the price paid for you to belong

It's not like we hate him or want him to die

But maybe he goes home and thinks suicide

Or he comes back to school with a gun at his side

And a kindness from you might have saved his life

Heroes are made when you make a choice

You could be a hero

Heroes do what's right

You could be a hero

You might save a life

You could be a hero, You could join the fight

For what's right for what's right for what's right

No one talks to her, she feels so alone

She's in too much pain to survive on her own

The hurt she can't handle overflows to a knife

She writes on her arm, wants to give up her life

Each day she goes on is a day that she is brave,

Fighting the lie that giving up is the way,

Each moment of courage her own life she saves

When she throws the pills out a hero is made

[Chorus]

No one talks to him about how he lives

He thinks that the choices he makes are just his

Doesn't know he's a leader with the way he behaves

And others will follow the choices he's made

He lives on the edge, he's old enough to decide

His brother who wants to be him is just nine

He can do what he wants because it's his right

The choices he makes change a nine year old's life

[Chorus]
