Hero
My skin ain't made of stone The scars you see Tell you a story The ones you don't I hide them secretly For no one to know Think you know me but Nobody does They only think they do What I put out Is what everyone knows What I keep in Not everybody knows The whole story Only what I speak about but If nobody hears Nobody knows My pain The heartache I wear Trusting is my miracle Never turning my back Facing everything As life comes at me Hoping I can come out ahead Everything is a struggle Just getting by In a victory in itself My head above the water Is a triumph itself Just because I survive the day Doesn't mean I don't want to When it's the nights That get to me I just keep trying I wish was your hero but No matter how much I doubt myself You never gave up on me Making me your hero Made me a hero to me
