Lyrics
The hero was a bad man
Anyone who wanted to be remembered
Had to do it on the backs of other men
“And it always stops and starts about the same”
The hero wore a black hat
No one noticed when he left the building
No one could remember what his name was
“But they stopped to thank the lord I kept them safe”
We don’t want to see the darkness
That hides beneath your smile
Young and stupid, call it foolish
But we’re the ones who died
The hero wasn’t listening
Even though each whisper left him reeling
He would never deign to tell the truth
“That I feel the most alone when I’m with you”
We don’t want to see the darkness
That hides behind your eyes
Young and stupid, consequential
The innocence denied
The innocence denied
All you are
All that you are
It’s not so far from this
We’re living on the edge of every word
Debate your path
You’ve done the math
But now we’re living on the edge of every word
