Hero from Protruding Nail by The String Breakers

Chorus
I am your hero
I am your friend
Put the needle in real slow
Shoot me right in
When you think you're all done
The fun has just begun
I am your hero
I'm your savior
I'm your heroin

Verse 1
I once knew a woman
A mother of two
She was stressed and depressed
Alone in her room
She put the kids to bed
Then she called me
When them kids woke up
Mommy O.D.'d

Verse 2
When Tommy found mommy
He was only two
He was furious and curious
Found me in a spoon
I look like sugar
Oh I look so sweet
When daddy found Tommy
Tommy O.D.'d

Verse 3
Last time I saw dad
He took the only boy to school
Couldn't quit hypocrite
Broke his own rules
When the boy got home
He was ready to read
But daddy's not asleep
Cause daddy O.D.'d

Outro
You’re laying there saying your prayers
Wondering if the Narcan will hurt
Fading fast seeing black and you realize
The Narcan didn’t work
