(Intro and Chorous)
Tell me, what is a Hero?
What do they do?
What do they say?
What made them a Hero?
To me and to you?
Was it something they did?
Was it something they said?
Or something they always were?
And are they alive now, or dead?
(1st Verse)
Is it your Father, or your Mother?
A stranger you never knew?
Your Sister, or your Brother?
Is it someone you once hated?
Who is now your best friend, or your lover?
Or someone who brought back to you
Something you thought you'd never, ever recover?
(Chorous)
(2nd Verse)
Is it something they sang?
Or something they wrote?
Is it something they created?
Forever after, worthy of note?
Did they get you to think?
Did they get you to feel?
Or did they just get you to believe?
Something you once thought, not real?
(Chorous)
(3rd Verse)
Was it because they spoke out?
Or because they could forgive?
Or because they gave up their life?
So you would continue to live?
Can a Hero be a coward?
Or are Heroes always bold?
Is it one great glorious act?
Or a million small ones, forever left untold?
(Chorous)
(4th Verse)
Was it because they made you laugh?
Or because they made you cry?
Did they always tell the truth?
Or did they sometimes lie?
Did they once pull you back?
From a certain death?
From the hand of a great power?
Or just saved you once, from yourself?
(Chorous)
(Last Verse)
So tell me, what is a Hero?
Are Heroes for all time?
Are Heroes flawed, like you and me?
Or something none mortal and divine?
Do they have one defining thing?
Or are they never quite the same?
Is there one or many kinds of Heroes?
Worthy of the name?
