The Hero Lyrics by Layne Elizabeth

2020

[Verse 1]
I tried, I failed
My standards are way too high to keep
Hold on to, the details
Of times when I fell in way too deep
And I let mistake define me
Convince myself that's who I am
People try to tell me what they see
I just don't understand
How somebody could be proud of me
I am my worst enemy
[Chorus]
I'm not even the hero in my own story
I only bring my own world down
Everyone around needs to be safe from me
Before I knock them to the ground
There's no doubt I desеrve the worst
No one's cheering for thе hurt
I'll never be the hero in my own story
Ooh oh
I'll never be the hero in my own story
Ooh oh
[Verse 2]
I am, so broken
Sometimes I feel like I'm hard to love
It's a miracle how I'm forgiven
So many things that I've done
That I wish were in me
I feel like a villain who sometimes does decent things
[Chorus]
I'm not even the hero in my own story
I only bring my own world down
Everyone around needs to be safe from me
Before I knock them to the ground
There's no doubt I deserve the worst
No one's cheering for the hurt
I'll never be the hero in my own story
Ooh oh
I'll never be the hero in my own story
Ooh oh
[Bridge]
I'm not, a hero
But I wish that I could be
I start too many fires
But someone else has to put them out for me
I'm not, a hero
But I wish that I could be
I start too many fires
But someone else has to put them out for me
I'm not, a hero
But I wish that I could be
I start too many fires
But someone else has to put them out for me
I'm not, a hero
But I wish that I could be
I start too many fires
But someone else has to put them out for me
[Chorus]
I'm not even the hero in my own story
I only bring my own world down
Everyone around needs to be safe from me
Before I knock them to the ground
There's no doubt I deserve the worst
No one's cheering for the hurt
I'll never be the hero in my own story
Ooh oh
I'll never be the hero in my own story
Ooh oh
I'll never be the hero in my own story
Ooh oh
