lyrics

Lets get behind the camera
Lets get some pics of the kids
Lets get some pics of some shithead
Not even sure what they did

You bet it all on a lame horse, Its plated gold on a pewter face
These tiny moments are worth so much more
Ask yourself whose got you running in place
You got down on all fours, You got dragged down by that beast you chase

Like Bonnie Tyler cried, I'm holding on for a hero

You can't sell your soul to be famous
If theres nothing there to be sold
You gotta count on all of the hopeless, looking to like and share what they're told

We call them genius for nothing
A worthless casket to hold our faith
We're trapping stars on the sidewalk
We give so much to those who only take

Like Bonnie Tyler cried, I'm holding on for a hero
Hold on til the morning light
gotta be strong
gotta be fast
gotta be fresh from the fight
Hero
Hold on til the morning light
gotta be strong
gotta be fast
gotta be fresh from the fight

Like Bonnie Tyler cried, I'm holding on for a hero
