Silverstein — A Hero Loses Everyday lyrics

Lyrics

Hey!
I’ve lost everything
Now I’ve got to find a way out
Hey!
They keep asking me where I was when it was burning
There’s no trying to explain
They’ll lock me up again
Throw away the key
The protagonist became the villain they disdain in every way
Hey!
Nothing’s left for me expect malady and hatred
No evidence was found
They’ll let me go for now
At least until tomorrow
(And) Hey!
When tomorrow brings the morning sun again
I’ll be long gone
Now
As I drive away and leave the past behind
I think I’m dying
It’s so pathetic
I hate you so much but I still miss you
Karma is hard to change
When everything you do and say is awful
Remorse is hard to fake
When you only feel sorry for yourself
I’m coughing up more blood
It’s filling up my lungs
It’s killing me
Hey!
When tomorrow brings the morning sun again
I’ll be long gone
(I'll be long gone)
Dead!
Lying all alone on this motel room floor
I know I’m dying
(I know I’m dying)
Hey! (Hey!)
I’ve lost everything
Now! (Now!)
I’ve succumbed to grace
Hey! (Hey!)
It’s not that surprising
A hero loses everyday
