A New Hero
You’re waiting for someone
Because you can’t do this yourself
Waiting for someone to come save you
From the thoughts inside your head
Always there
Never changing
The thoughts
Inside your head
So you ask why no one ever helps you
Clearly in so much pain
Day in and day out,
Does no one ever care?
You’re waiting for someone
Because you can’t do this yourself
Waiting for someone to come save you
From the children at the school
Always there
Never changing
The words
Inside your head
They laugh and mock you
With there crude friends
Creating pain for you
To carry for a long time
You’re waiting for someone
Because you can’t do this yourself
Waiting for someone to come save you
From your own family
Always there
Never changing
The bruises
On your arms
Why can’t they love you?
You never did them any harm
You always loved them
Why can’t they stop hurting you?
You’re waiting for someone
Because you can’t do this yourself
Waiting for someone to come save you
From the situation
How many people are there,
That could be helping you
But instead turn a blind eye
Because caring is too painful
You’re like one of the millions of refuges
Running away from persecution
The only thing done wrong, was being born
But only point five percent are saved.
You’re waiting for someone
Because you can’t do this yourself
Waiting for someone to come save you
Why can’t you do this yourself?
You could be the one to help them
The ones hurt at home
The ones bullied at school
The ones with thoughts inside their heads
You could be that little bit of hope they need
Because someone’s got to do it
So why can’t it be you?
You could be that little bit of hope they need
You’re waiting for someone
Because they can’t do it themselves
Waiting for someone to come save them
Why can’t you go help?
You could be your own hero
Be there for yourself
Stick up for others
Who need a bit of hope?
Be your own hero
Be theirs as well
Why can’t you do it?
I know you can.
