The Verve Pipe - Hero (vocal up) lyrics

I can't believe that it was good for anyone To be worth the wait I tried to send you with your money's worth And the attention sure felt great With all eyes upon me Some filled with tears but most couldn't see It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me Creep from the cradle, but a hero's what I wanna be Keep it moving people 'cause there's nothing more for you to see I'm just a jerk, but a hero's what I wanna be Yeah, oh yeah Love me, love me, sweet cowardice Now that the thrill is mine for the moment We really didn't need another suicide Or a song explaining why, it's not dignified But I can't seem to kiss it goodbye It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me Creep from the cradle, but a hero's what I wanna be Keep it moving people 'cause there's nothing more for you to see I'm just a jerk, but a hero's what I wanna be Yeah, oh yeah It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me Creep from the cradle, but a hero's what I wanna be Keep it moving people 'cause there's nothing more for you to see I'm just a jerk, but a hero's what I wanna be Erase this disaster even faster than you came to see A creep from the cradle and a hero-driven wannabe For your abuse, but not intended for internal use I'm just a jerk, but a hero's what I wanna be It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me Creep from the cradle but a hero's what I wanna be Yeah, oh yeah
