Hero - The Verve Pipe

I can’t believe that it was good for anyone

To be worth the wait

I tried to send you with your money’s worth

And the attention sure felt great

With all eyes upon me

Some filled with tears but most couldn’t see

It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me

Creep from the cradle, but a hero’s what I wanna be

Keep it moving people 'cause there’s nothing more for you to see

I’m just a jerk, but a hero’s what I wanna be

Yeah, oh yeah

Love me, love me, sweet cowardice

Now that the thrill is mine for the moment

We really didn’t need another suicide

Or a song explaining why, it’s not dignified

But I can’t seem to kiss it goodbye

It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me

Creep from the cradle, but a hero’s what I wanna be

Keep it moving people 'cause there’s nothing more for you to see

I’m just a jerk, but a hero’s what I wanna be

Yeah, oh yeah

It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me

Creep from the cradle, but a hero’s what I wanna be

Keep it moving people 'cause there’s nothing more for you to see

I’m just a jerk, but a hero’s what I wanna be

Erase this disaster even faster than you came to see

A creep from the cradle and a hero-driven wannabe

For your abuse, but not intended for internal use

I’m just a jerk, but a hero’s what I wanna be

It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me

Creep from the cradle but a hero’s what I wanna be

Yeah, oh yeah
