Heroes lyrics

You can see it on her face

Her red eyes say she's not safe

How should she know what it means

She is only just thirteen

Under her duvet's where she hides

To block the screaming late at night

She can't remember life before

Mama and Daddy went to war

Poor little girl's so full of confusion

Cry all you want cause you're only human

Was all the love just an illusion?

Daddy's not coming home

Mama's asleep and she smells of whiskey

Promise that won't be you when you're 50

Fly before the guilty clip your wings

Cause all your heroes

Are skin and bones

Packed the small bag of things she loves

Deep inside she blames herself

She has nowhere else to go

But that sounds better than what she knows

And as she steps into the dark

Dirty hair and heavy heart

Cold cold, air inside her lungs

Catch a snowflake on her tongue

Poor little girl's so full of confusion

Cry all you want cause you're only human

Was all the love just an illusion?

Daddy's not coming home

Mama's asleep and she smells of whiskey

Promise that won't be you when you're 50

Fly before the guilty clip your wings

Cause all your heroes

Are skin and bones

And as I heard you shut the door

Went to the window and I saw

The footsteps of my big sister in the snow

Since then not a single day has passed

When I don't say your name and ask

Where, where did you go?

Poor little girl's so full of confusion

Cry all you want cause you're only human

Was all the love just an illusion?

Daddy's not coming home

Mama's asleep and she smells of whiskey

Promise that won't be you when you're 50

Fly before the guilty clip your wings

Cause all you're heroes

Are skin and bones
