I'm Not Your 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.

Standing where I am now

Standing up at all

I was used to feeling like I was never gonna see myself at the finish line

Hanging on two parts of me

Hanging on at all

I was used to seeing no future in my sight line

Sometimes it feels like they want to remind me

Send all those villains after me

I’m not their hero

But that doesn’t mean that I wasn’t brave

I never walked the party line

Doesn’t mean that I was never afraid

I’m not your hero

But that doesn’t mean we’re not one in the same

Feeling like I am now

Lighting up the hall

I was used to standing in the shadow of a damaged heart

Learning all I know now

Losing all I did

I never used to feel like I’d be standing so far ahead

Sometimes it feels what I recovered you lost

Sending your peaceful loss to me

I’m not their hero

But that doesn’t mean that I wasn’t brave

I never walked the party line

Doesn’t mean that I was never afraid

I’m not your hero

But that doesn’t mean we’re not one in the same

Sometimes it feels like the side that I’m on plays the toughest hand

Holds the longest stand

Sometimes it feels like I’m all that they’ve got

It’s so hard to know I’m not what they want

Sometimes it feels like the side that i’m on plays the toughest hand

Holds the longest stand

Sometimes it feels like I’m all that they’ve got

It’s so hard to know I’m not what they want

I’m not their hero

But that doesn’t mean that I wasn’t brave

I never walked the party line

Doesn’t mean that I was never afraid

I’m not your hero

But that doesn’t mean we’re not one in the same

I do my best to walk the finest line

Till I’ve had all that I can take
