I knew he was different in his sexuality
|
I went to his parties as a straight minority
|
It never seemed a threat to my masculinity
|
He only introduced me to a wider reality
|
As the years went by, we drifted apart
|
When I heard that he was gone
|
I felt a shadow cross my heart
|
|
But he's nobody's hero
|
Saves a drowning child
|
Cures a wasting disease
|
Hero...lands the crippled airplane
|
Solves great mysteries
|
Hero...not the handsome actor
|
Who plays a hero's role
|
Hero...not the glamour girl
|
Who'd love to sell her soul
|
If anybody's buying
|
Nobody's hero
|
|
I didn't know the girl, but I knew her family
|
All their lives were shattered in a nightmare of brutality
|
They try to carry on, try to bear the agony
|
Try to hold some faith in the goodness of humanity
|
As the years went by, we drifted apart
|
When I heard that she was gone
|
I felt a shadow cross my heart
|
|
But she's nobody's hero
|
Is the voice of reason against the howling mob
|
Hero...is the pride of purpose
|
In the unrewarding job
|
Hero...not the champion player
|
Who plays the perfect game
|
Hero...not the glamour boy
|
Who loves to sell his name
|
Everybody's buying
|
Nobody's hero
|
|
As the years went by, we drifted apart
|
When I heard that you were gone
|
I felt a shadow cross my heart
|
|
But he's nobody's hero
|
Saves a drowning child
|
Cures a wasting disease
|
Hero...lands the crippled airplane
|
Solves great mysteries
|
Hero...not the handsome actor
|
Who plays a hero's role
|
Hero...not the glamour girl
|
Who'd love to sell her soul
|
If anybody's buying
|
Nobody's hero
|
|
Hero
