All song lyrics from the album This Journey

Not Your Hero

Lyrics by Chris Klimecky

An emergency call is going out tonight but no one’s answering
Our chance of getting through the night is quickly lowering
Like an island, we’re on our own
It’s the last chance for the final boat and
We can’t miss this ride, so I’ll carry you outside

This wasn’t supposed to happen
You shouldn’t be here at all
Your heart should not be breaking
You weren’t supposed to fall

I am not your hero
I’m just next in line
I am not your hero
Would you catch me next time?

Runnin’ through the dark with the guiding light of the full moon
Slippin’ off the edge, gotta hang on tight, we’re gonna be there soon
But I fear that it’s all too late
We’re connected, we can’t escape and
Once we’re on safe ground, I won’t put you down

This wasn’t supposed to happen
I shouldn’t be here at all
My heart should not be aching
I’m not supposed to fall

I am not your hero
I’m just next in line
I am not your hero
Would you catch me next time?

Hold this moment
when feelings are so strong
Don’t forget
Heroes are made when things go wrong

I am not your hero
I’m just next in line
I am not your hero
Would you catch me next time?

I am not your hero
I’m just next in line
I am not your hero
Would you catch me next time?
