( J. Englishman and Esthero )
|
|
Esthero :
|
Oh, oh, oh..
|
|
J. Englishman:
|
Well I've been watching from the shadows
|
While you shook your fist at God
|
And screamed for all who listened
|
About how he's done you wrong
|
Why don't you put away your pistols
|
Climb down off your cross
|
Coz the battle's long been over
|
And the war is long since lost
|
And all those bridges that you've broken
|
Done burned down long ago
|
Coz you just had to be the superstar
|
|
Esthero & J. Englishman:
|
Just had to be the hero
|
You just had to be the hero
|
|
J. Englishman:
|
Well I was there in the beginning
|
And I saw you choose your path
|
I watched your candle burning
|
And I knew it wouldn't last
|
Coz when experience comes knocking
|
Innocence will pass
|
And all that once seemed child-like
|
Is now ugly, crude and crass
|
And you wonder how you lost yourself
|
So many years ago
|
Coz you just had to be the superstar
|
|
Esthero & J. Englishman:
|
Just had to be the hero
|
You just had to be the hero
|
(Yeah)
|
|
J. Englishman:
|
Are you as angry on the inside
|
As you are on the surface
|
|
Esthero and J. Englishman:
|
Been frontin' so long you've forgotten the purpose
|
Now there's a hole in the whole
|
Where your soul
|
Used to be
|
Uh huh
|
|
Esthero and J. Englishman:
|
Well I've been watching from the shadows
|
While you shook your fist at God
|
And screamed for all who listened
|
About how he's done you wrong
|
Why don't you put away your pistols
|
Climb down off your cross
|
Coz the battle's long been over
|
And the war is long since lost
|
And now this old broken heart
|
Weeps for the one I used to know
|
Who just had to be the superstar
|
Just had to be the hero
|
You just had to be the hero
|
Why did you have to be the hero
|
