Hero

This newfound image of today

Just a disguised villain of yesterday

Your loving hate takes me so far away

You turned my heart such a deeper, darker shade

Self-consciously I know you mean too much to me

And as this hunger grows there's famine and no seed

Shock of this, you know that it ain't new

My breath's been waiting baby, waiting on you

Won't you be my hero(2×)

Please come capture me

Under the weeping willow

Waiting I will be

So hero, tell me, tell me this

Are you the lips to my sweet phantom kiss?

Or are you the villain in all of my dreams?

The cause of all the thunder, the cause of all the screams

The lies you told me were somehow true

This green that I've been seeing has really been blue

Now all that I can do is hand myself to you

And pray you'll let me love you

Don't be ruthless, don't be cruel

Won't you be my hero(4×)

Please come capture me

Under the weeping willow

Waiting I will be
