Thomas Harpole - Hero

Grown up gonna be a firefighter
Superman flying high
But now my cape a little lighter
C'mon now
How can I be your hero?
When you're out there
Saving me
Saving me
Saving me

Grown up gonna be a fighter pilot
Shoot 'em down from the sky
But you're got me bad
And I can't fly yet
The marks you made were carved so deeply into me,
Eh hey hey, hey hey hey
Into me

Time doesn't stop though
Nor the call to be a hero
Or the pull to be a boy and a man
Do I dress up and play today?
Or work my back just to give it away?
I need help to understand
Understand
I need help to understand
You and all of your love
All your love
To understand

So come upstairs through the leather seats
The boxes and all of the irony
Stacked boots in the attic
And all that's left of who I used to be
I got debt pulling hard but it pulls on me
I'm drawing down now with many mouths to feed
I found Judas inside
And next to him
My golden tree

Oh but time doesn't stop though
Nor the call to be a hero or the pull to be a boy and a man
Should I dress up and play today
Or work my back just to give it away
I need help to understand
Understand
I need help to understand
Understand
I need help to understand
You and all of your love
All your love
To understand
You and all of your love
All your love
To understand

I'd rather climb with this rope in my hands
On top of mountains than just hang here and
I'd rather my own children understand
The life that you know will crumble with your plans
To the mud
Where love lives
Love lives

Oh but time doesn't stop though
Nor the call to be a hero or the pull to be a boy and a man
Should I dress up and play today
Or work my back just to give it away
I need help to understand
Understand
I need help to understand
Understand

Could I be, could I be your superhero?
Could I be, could I be your superhero?
Say could I be, could I be your superhero?
Save me now
Could I be, could I be your superhero?
Could I be, could I be your superhero?
