Heroes
They say that when it comes to choosing heroesIt's best to pick the ones who aren't aroundIf you choose among the livingYou tend to have misgivingsWhen your hero lets you downHe might have a bad night in your townAnd so I will not name my heroesAnd I'll keep my distance when I canBut if time should bend or break themI hope I won't forsake themIf by chance they need a friendOr need to walk on ordinary groundGod knows it must be tough to be a heroTo wake up in a hero's state of mindThey say it's hard to be heroicMuch easier to blow itWhen somebody's watching all the timeAnd you're dancing on the thin edge of a dimeThey say it's hard, so hardThey say it's hard, ain't it hardIf someday I'm mistaken for a heroI only hope it's after I am goneSongtexteSome of us are heroesSome of us are zerosWannabes who never were the oneBut who is who when all is said and doneThey say that when it comes to choosing heroesIt's best to pick the ones who aren't aroundIf you choose among the livingYou tend to have misgivingsWhen your hero lets you downHe might have a bad night in your town Aus Songtexte Mania
