The Hero — текст песни (Esthero)

( j. englishman and esthero )



Esthero :

Oh, oh, oh..



J. englishman:

Well Ive been watching from the shadows

While you shook your fist at god

And screamed for all who listened

About how hes done you wrong

Why dont you put away your pistols

Climb down off your cross

Coz the battles long been over

And the war is long since lost

And all those bridges that youve broken

Done burned down long ago

Coz you just had to be the superstar



Esthero & j. englishman:

Just had to be the hero

You just had to be the hero



J. englishman:

Well I was there in the beginning

And I saw you choose your path

I watched your candle burning

And I knew it wouldnt last

Coz when experience comes knocking

Innocence will pass

And all that once seemed child-like

Is now ugly, crude and crass

And you wonder how you lost yourself

So many years ago

Coz you just had to be the superstar



Esthero & j. englishman:

Just had to be the hero

You just had to be the hero

(yeah)



J. englishman:

Are you as angry on the inside

As you are on the surface



Esthero and j. englishman:

Been frontin so long youve forgotten the purpose

Now theres a hole in the whole

Where your soul

Used to be

Uh huh



Esthero and j. englishman:

Well Ive been watching from the shadows

While you shook your fist at god

And screamed for all who listened

About how hes done you wrong

Why dont you put away your pistols

Climb down off your cross

Coz the battles long been over

And the war is long since lost

And now this old broken heart

Weeps for the one I used to know

Who just had to be the superstar

Just had to be the hero

You just had to be the hero

Why did you have to be the hero
