heroes
some do some don't some stand around
some still believe the things i won't
some walk some talk some can't shut up
some still enjoy the things i don't
so you want to tear down
then come back and turn around
heroes here we go with our halos bent and cracked
heroes here we go and we're never coming back
some should some could some can't complain
some realize we're all the same
so you want to tear down
then come back and turn around
heroes here we go with our halos bent and cracked
heroes here we go and we're never coming back

if
i think i need a love to help me rest my mind
i think i need a love to help me test my smile
everyone is here to watch there hero die
some of us are scared some of us are just bored with all the lies
she's gonna hold me tight
she's gonna hold me right
cause i want her to
if if if if
i want to if i had to i could thrill you with all that i know
if i want to i could lock the door from inside
i could change the locks in my mind
i don't want to know that every time i'll fail
i don't want to breathe when all the air is stale
she's gonna hold me tight
she's gonna hold me right
cause i want her to
if i want to if i had to i could thrill you with all that i know
if i want to i could lock the door from inside
i could change the locks in my mind
i could change the locks and then every time you'd come
you would have to knock and if you ever got in i would change the locks again
then before you know i'd be changing locks on every single door
on every single shore in the world
if if if

eurogirl
i stack the cushions all around me to soften up my melodies
i'm careful not to ever sing in d
somewhere someone is singing with me
to harmonize my harmonies
a european girl with perfect pitch
i don't want to ever have to lift the riffs that i might need
i'm careful not to steal the ones in d
won't you try and sing my song
be careful not to run
i don't want to tell my song to you or your friends
if everyone of you could be tearing down
i can't believe the words that i'm sharing now
you want to show me how
stay back if you can
i'm done here doing time
for everyone of you there is none of me
if everyone of you was as bored as me
you want to show me how
stay back if you can
i'm done here doing time

the rescue
if i am i than i'm just a word
well that's absurd
but if a word i am than i'll be free or just happy
maybe a superhero lost in sound
i'm a superhero flying around
i'm a superhero who never underestimates his foes
coming to the rescue of you
i could rescue you and you could rescue me too
i tell you so you can understand
i'm more than a man
i'm a superhero lost in sound
i'm a superhero flying around
i'm a superhero who never underestimates his foes
coming to the rescue of you
i could rescue you and you could rescue me too
two superheroes

but i'm feeling like a zero
i'm ready i'm feeling kind of hated
or maybe just overrated
like a time bomb unchaperoned
but i'm allright so don't you stare
i'm ready i'm feeling kind of cheated
or maybe just mistreated
i'm ready i'm looking like a zero
but i'm feeling like a hero
like a bad check rubberneck
