Heroes

Story Behind The Song

Who are are our real heroes?? Sometimes those we look up to are so transitory. I compose these lyrics during one particular rough time when those I admired were discovered to be less than noble in their actions. I am sure many of us have that happen to us frequently. I do believe there is one we can always trust.

Lyrics

Woke up today.
Heard your song on the Radio. Musical poem, rymin' lyrical rock and roll.
But all you sing about is death and pain.
It might make you money.
But are you insane.
What have you done to ease my pain, Music Man?

Watchin' TV,
superman flying through the air.
Slammin' and jammin',
stuffin' hoops to the crowds
roaring cheers.
But all you talk about is wealth and fame.
You might be a player, but are you insane?
What have you done to ease my pain,
Sports Man?

Drove home today,
Oversize monster from overseas.
Going to fast, blew right by me at supersonic speed.
Did you see me right next to you?
Do you think much about those things that you do?
What have you done to ease my blues?
Money Man?

Bridge

Had a dream last,
Visions of peace and delight.
Love of God.
Fire of passion burning bright
Well, I know what you did you just had to do.
You always stayed faithful when I was untrue.
You eased my pain and you eased my blues, Chosen Man?

I know what you did you just had to do.
You always stayed faithful when I was untrue.
You eased my pain and you eased my blues, Chosen Man?
