Hero

Track

Appears on: Awake
Lyrics:

V1
I'm just a step away
I'm just a breath away
Losing my faith today
(Falling off the edge today)

I am just a man
Not superhuman
(I'm not superhuman)
Someone save me from the hate

Pre
It's just another war
Just another family torn
(Falling from my faith today)
Just a step from the edge
Just another day in the world we live

Chorus
I need a hero to save me now
I need a hero
(Save me now)
I need a hero to save my life
A hero'll save me
(Just in time)

V2
I gotta fight today
To live another day
Speaking my mind today
(My voice will be heard today)

I’ve gotta make a stand
But I am just a man
(I'm not superhuman)
My voice will be heard today

Pre
It's just another war
Just another family torn
(My voice will be heard today)
It's just another kill
The countdown begins to destroy ourselves

Bridge
Who's gonna fight for what's right
Who's gonna help us survive

We're in the fight of our lives

(And we're not ready to die)

Who's gonna fight for the weak
Who's gonna make 'em believe
I've got a hero
(I've got a hero)

Living in me

I'm gonna fight for what’s right
Today I'm speaking my mind

And if it kills me tonight

(I will be ready to die)
A hero's not afraid to give his life
A hero's gonna save me just in time

Everyone needs to hear at least one Skillet song. Christian or not. I actually know a Jewish person that has made some non Christian music videos of some of Skillet's songs.
