Hero Video (MV)

Stay with me awhile
In this soft light that keeps out the darkness
I see colours around your head

And I've been alone a while
Cold as copper pipes and bent as stone arches
I'm a lover without a bed

I know that victory is for fools
I'd rather not die, but I will if you want us to lose
Oh, I thought that I could be some kind of hero, for you

I made up with the devil
Told him I never liked his face
But I know he's got his place here

And I put to rest the rebel
Jimmy Dean you'll live forever
But I want to live more clever
And stay here, I want to stay here

I know that history won't tell the truth
I've tried to die and I know that I've tried to keep cool
Oh, I thought that I could be some kind of hero, for you

Stay with me awhile
In this soft light that keeps out the darkness
I see colours around your head
