lyrics

Oh the demons I shall battle,
shall mostly be all my own.
Another course be charted for me,
May horizons ever grow.

So much for the straight and narrow!
I spit on diaphanous lies.
'Cause the second chances never come,
Let me feel a tad more alive...

Ceaseless line,
Of prodded cattle.
Endless prattle,
There's a cage to rattle!

Let's, Let's Let's
Let's not be heroes!!
Let's, Let's Let's
Let's not be heroes!!

Now this old dream's dissolving,
Why torture myself with false hope?
I pity the fools who desire my help,
Is what I need wider scope?

Where's the fun in dictatorship,
if everyone's happy about it?
the falsehood of prosperity,
my shadow's extensive and thick.

My nail's grip on reality,
Ripped from the bed of humanity!

Let's, Let's Let's
Let's not be heroes!!
Let's, Let's Let's
Let's not be heroes!!

There will be no statue of me,
In every quaint hamlet or square.
I see it right now- clear as can be,
a carved and vainglorious stare.

How I tire of celebration,
and garish displays of their love.
Not my public raison d'être,
I'm evil when push comes to shove.

Ceaseless line,
Of prodded cattle.
Endless prattle,
There's a cage to rattle!

Let's, Let's Let's
Let's not be heroes!!
Let's, Let's Let's
Let's not be heroes!!

'Cause this world won't repay in kind.
This world won't repay in kind....
This world won't repay in kind.

This... world won't repay in... kind!!
