I've been pushing specifics
In my general sort of way
I've been trying to protest
With profanities and silent rage

And if heroes are made and not born would you want me to save
Forgive me to for trying to rescue what you never gave
I've been putting out fires that you always start
And you still forget my name
But when you surrender I hope you remember
It was me that saved the day
And I wish you would save me from the truth
That I am not good enough
But I can't comprehend the things I can't see

And I know that I am the one
Jump in front of the gun
And you'd never know who I am
I've been wearing disguises I hope you're surprised
When I take off the mask and you see who I really am
What I am to you... But I'll hide for now instead...

I've been trying to brave the conditions you waive
And I hope that it's not been in vein
Hero or not I'm still taking my shot
Win or lose I'll still feel the same
And here I am to say, That I'm the one that gave
My last dying breath when I had nothing left
It was me that saved the day
And I wish you would save me from the truth
That I am not good enough
But I can't comprehend the things I can't see

And I'm standing on a chair with my arms in the air
And I'm hoping to feel some rain
I've been waiting for lightening to strike me tonight
So I can feel your electricity
And here I am to say, That I'm the one that gave
My last dying breath when I had nothing left
It was me that saved the day
