I am nobody's hero
Spent all of my years justifying answers I didn't believe
(I blindly believed.)
Now I'm empty and unsure of who I am and what I'm for
I've heard that never questioning made me
A martyr
But I don't want to die for this
Even though the things I let define my life
Don't mean a thing to me anymore
Without this jail to confine my life
I am nothing but a wretch without a home
Don't tell me I'm missing out
I never want to drop to the depths of your golden heart
This is existence; all I want to do is live
Its all I want to do
But I have been too scared to try
One day I'm gonna leave
But before I go
I'll leave something behind
No one ever left for me to know
I wanna leave you thinking
But not that this was ever about you
But oh, this is about me
I know I need to change
I'm sorry if this hurts for you to hear
But I'm free and I won't be sorry for the mess I'm in
This is the cross I built, this is the burden that I chose
So through my struggle, I will soldier on
I don't need a mortal man to approve this fractured faith of mine
Even if that means I am nobody's hero
So keep your rituals and kings, and I'll keep on wandering
I am not what you think, I am nobody's hero
(Sorry if this hurts for you to hear.)
