Alice Merton – Hero Lyrics

Hero Lyrics by Alice Merton

Sometimes I wish I was the hero in your story
I’d save you from yourself
And sometimes I wish I could take somethin’
A little bit stronger to drown you out

Were you ever happy?
Or did I read you all wrong?
Were you still in mending
While I loved you lights on? (Lights on, lights on, lights on)

All this time
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
I’ve been wastin’ my mind

All this time
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
I’ve been wastin’ my mind

Sometimes I wish I was the hero in your story
I’d save you from yourself

You’re keeping a straight face
So what am I to do?
And when you look in the mirror
Am I still looking at you?
Taking my all, you were drowning us dead
‘Cause ever since the fall you’ve been hidin’ what you meant
And I wish I saw all the doubt that you felt
‘Cause now you’re out, now you’re out

All this time
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
I’ve been wastin’ my mind

All this time
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
I’ve been wastin’ my mind

All this time
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
I’ve been wastin’ my mind

All this time
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
I’ve been wastin’ my mind

Sometimes I wish I was the hero in your story
I’d save you from yourself
And sometimes I wish I could take something
A little bit stronger to drown you out
