Hero

Another bad day, waste of promise
Are we really getting near?
Kick off your work shoes, rest a little
Theres nothing for you to prove
Is it funny or is it sad?
We leave and enter on our own
Is it funny or is it sad?
We never really know anyone
Im telling you my only secret
Im so lonely, she said
Im waiting for a hero to save the day
A heaviness so relentless
An emptiness so monumental
Im waiting for a hero to save the day
Across the sea I can hear youre tired
What is there left to see?
A smash of keyboard into their faces
A silence so satisfying
I can understand why you left your home
I can understand
Im telling you...
Cause were twenty, twenty, twenty-two
Bleeding stars, stars and happy thoughts
Cause were twenty, twenty, twenty-two
Waiting for the rain, the rain to stop
Cause Im a boy and youre a girl
And what else is there in this world?
I can make you smile, I can make you laugh
What else is there in this world?
So take my hand and marry me
Ill make your branches sprout a-green
I can make you smile, I can make you laugh
What else is there in this world?
And if you take my hand
Ill lead you to the promised land
Just call in sick
Our time is now
Ive got so much love to give
A vessel to receive it
Take the day off work
Our time is now, our time is now
