the heroes

Singer: shed seven

i lost my heart in san francisco years ago

i've been back to search but the curse is getting worse

don't you know

that the hardest blow to take is the one that you don't

really know

is around the corner and ready to floor

you

it looms and it goads

and we'll find some piece of mind from the shadows

and i know that we could climb just to pass the time

like the heroes

who stand up in their prime

lost but still they shine

i was solo and alfresco years ago

and i fan the flames that keep me burning don't you know

that i'm finding it harder still climbing up to this hill

without you clinging on

don't open the wounds

that scarred you it just makes things harder to prove

where you're from

and we'll find some piece of mind from the shadows

and i know that we could climb just to pass the time

like the heroes

who stand up in their prime

lost but still they shine

heroes-misunderstood.
