People define you by what you simply cannot be for them
How dare you tell me how I'm living my own life?
Does anyone truly care about the correct things I did?
They only point out what you have failed to achieve

Does anyone even know the difficult places I've been through?
No one truly cares to know my journey
So say your goodbyes now, because I will never be your hero
I am wide awake, I cannot fall asleep

My wise consciousness is speaking directly to my soul
You cannot be more than you are for those who do not care
Tomorrow is right here before your very eyes
You can still reach out and touch it, you still have time

Go and forge your own damn destiny with your own hands
Follow your own chosen path, without ever looking back
In my fall, I no longer have my wings
My body is wounded from having to constantly crawl

Even so, I can still see bright flashes of light
Alive on the outside, but dead on the inside
I am holding on tight, enduring the pain
Only the truly strong ones will survive the fall

Find your own self-worth now
Pray to the open heavens above
Because you've been buried alive in places of deep sadness
Pick up your glass and make a toast to this new life
You are completely free

Head held high, breathing a sigh of relief once again
Here I am, standing right here once more
Ready for another brand new start
Ready for another beginning!
I am not your hero!

I am not your hero
Ready for a new start
(You are free)
