[Intro] [Instrumental] [Verse 1] I feel the rush of the wind on my face As I rush along the streets Eyes watching me from every corner Promising to devour if I stop I can feel the long fingers Reaching out to grasp my life Trying to escape this madness That follows me [Pre-Chorus] The air gets cold, the shadows crawl The walls are closing in on me now [Chorus] I sense the impending doom Where’s the hero that was promised I gotta save myself from this They’re not gonna come for me this time I’ve gotta lift myself up above [Verse 2] With every step I start to slow Every breath a raspy whisper The world starts to turn As the figures start to move in Twisting and whirling about me Grabbing at me with their gnarled fingers Laughter filling the night air Is this the end or am I imagining it all [Breakdown] The distorted faces surround me Screaming my name, Screams of surrender Knees buckle under the pressure But I scream back at the silence [Pre-Chorus] The air gets cold, the shadows crawl The walls are closing in on me now [Chorus] I sense the impending doom Where’s the hero that was promised I gotta save myself from this They’re not gonna come for me this time I’ve gotta lift myself up above [Bridge] My own two hands must fight this war A Hero’s not coming to save me I’ve lost all hope of seeing one I must step up and take charge But I’m not a Hero [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] The air gets cold, the shadows crawl The walls are closing in on me now [Chorus] I sense the impending doom What happened to the hero that was promised I gotta save myself from this They’re not gonna come for me this time I’ve gotta lift myself up above [Chorus] I sense the impending doom What happened to the hero that was promised I gotta save myself from this They’re not gonna come for me this time I’ve gotta lift myself up above [Outro] [Music Fades] But I’m not a Hero
