You Are the Hero

Every song is a story
Every life is a journey
Do you know the hero in yours?

In a world full of danger
many toils, fears, and anger
Will the hate or the hero endure?

Chorus
You are the hero
in a life full of villains
who shatter your heart into shards
You stand up and laugh
even though you are bleeding
Dear God, why is it so damn hard?
You are the hero
You are the hero

I was lost in my story
I believed in my history
A hero was not in my mind

Then one day there he kneeled
by my side, and he healed me
and he said, “You are good and you’re kind”

Chorus
He said,
“You are the hero
in a life full of villains
who only exist in your mind
It’s hard, oh it’s rough
You are never enough
until you can see you’ve been blind, and
you are the hero
You are the hero”

Bridge
What is a hero
but a warm helping hand
and getting through life
the best that we can?

Chorus
He said,
“You are the hero
for taking life on
It’s not for the faint-hearted kind
It’s hard, oh it’s rough
and you are always enough
and for just this one moment in time
believe you’re the hero
because you are the hero”
