Life Without Heroes

I looked up for no reason

I held my heart in my hand

I heard the pledge of allegiance

I hesitated to stand

I know I can be a cold man

Born wired inside

But I roll my eyes

Why wait for glorious leaders

Just mumbling lines

Wasting my time

I'll take a life without heroes

And offer a hand

And I'll be good and get good back

From all the regular people

Who do what they can

To all be good and get good back

I drew elegant theorems

I made a tangible plan to

Improve on my past, you?

I don't need to be treated

Like I can't do my own math

Have I gone too fast for you?

Kings might change with the seasons

But commoners last

And that’s fact

I'll take a life without heroes

And offer a hand

And I'll be good and get good back

From all the regular people

Who do what they can

To all be good and get good back

Through lines of numbers

Through windows and tabs

I know

I saw my life without heroes,

All offering hands,

Through lines of numbers

Through windows and tabs

I know

I saw my life without heroes,

All offering hands,

Through lines of numbers

Through windows and tabs

I know
