words put together

hawkeye

being a hero
means i'm zero
and i know
that he knows
that my hands love to shake
when he wrinkles his nose
and the pain begins to grow
because he once told me no
and now he loves another soul
and being a hero
means i'm alone
until someone calls my phone
and needs a sword to cut a ghost
and save their ghost
and play my role
and go back home
to be left alone
and being a hero

means i'm so low
that no one knows
that no rings leave my phone
and my voicemail says i'm gone
and i'm sorry
being a hero
means i can't completely grow
and god i'm sorry
being a hero
leaves me left entirely tired
and i'm sorry
i'm not a hero
but i'm still zero
and i'm sorry
i'm not a hero.

i really hoped i could save you-
i guess my problem is being a saviour.
except i can't save
i only break
and all i break
leaves empty space
and tear stains on his face
and his pain keeps its pace
and i can only break away
and hope he feels better real soon-
god i'm sorry
i'm not a hero.
i'm not a hero.
i'm not a hero.
