temporary heroes

i've seen all the downfalls

temporary heroes

misguided direction

longing for perfection

love and pain

only for the foolish

once again

try to hide what's there inside

i'm the same

temporary hero

who's to blame

rituals and movements

much too soon improvements

hide many scars

others and ours

too late to discover

this untainted love is

destined to be

a sad memory

love and pain

only for the foolish

once again

try to hide what's there inside

i'm the same

temporary hero

who's to blame

so you take your chances

watchful of the glances

but don't turn away

though the wounds are healing

don't tell me the feelings the same

love and pain

only for the foolish

once again

try to hide what's there inside

i'm the same

temporary hero

who's to blame
