Lyrics: Heroes

Not gonna miss you when you're dead and gone
Not gonna talk about you over and over and over
Not gonna file you under latest nostalgia
Nor happily ever after

Not gonna listen to your played-out songs
(Played-out songs)
Don't wanna think about you over and over and over
Not gonna read about the latest fads on your trending blog
I want nothing to do with that

'Cause you've made a mess of everything
(And I'm not listening)

You're not a hero
You're a liar
You're not a savior
You're a vampire
Sucking the life out of all the friends you've never known
You're just a train wreck
Not a winner
Up on your soapbox, preaching down to the sinners
A saint without a cause
We're not listening
We're not listening

I'm gonna start a revolution
Of convoluted disillusion
(Start a revolution)
I'll lead a war with no conclusion
And in the final hour, I'll be a confident coward

'Cause if we stand for nothing, we'll fall for anything

You're not a hero
You're a liar
You're not a savior
You're a vampire
Sucking the life out of all the friends you've never known
You're just a train wreck
Not a winner
Up on your soapbox, preaching down to the sinners
A saint without a cause
We're not listening
We're not listening

Now this is moving in the same direction
But I'm a little too spent to care
'Cause it's a battlefield till it blows over
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer

You're ... but we live in glass houses
You talk shit; it's a price to bear
You're only wrong until you get older
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer
Enemies closer

They're gonna miss me when I'm dead and gone
They're gonna talk about me over and over and over
They're gonna file me under latest nostalgia
And happily ever after

I'm not a hero
I'm a liar
I'm not a savior
I'm a vampire
Sucking the life out of all the friends I've never known
We're a train wreck
Not winners
On a soapbox, preaching down to the sinners
Saints without a cause
We're not listening
We're not listening
We're not listening
We're not listening
