Esthero - The Hero Lyrics
( j. englishman and esthero )Esthero :Oh, oh, oh..J. englishman:Well Ive been watching from the shadowsWhile you shook your fist at godAnd screamed for all who listenedAbout how hes done you wrongWhy dont you put away your pistolsClimb down off your crossCoz the battles long been overAnd the war is long since lostAnd all those bridges that youve brokenDone burned down long agoCoz you just had to be the superstarEsthero & j. englishman:Just had to be the heroYou just had to be the heroJ. englishman:Well I was there in the beginningAnd I saw you choose your pathI watched your candle burningAnd I knew it wouldnt lastCoz when experience comes knockingInnocence will passAnd all that once seemed child-likeIs now ugly, crude and crassAnd you wonder how you lost yourselfSo many years agoCoz you just had to be the superstarEsthero & j. englishman:Just had to be the heroYou just had to be the hero(yeah)J. englishman:Are you as angry on the insideAs you are on the surfaceEsthero and j. englishman:Been frontin so long youve forgotten the purposeNow theres a hole in the wholeWhere your soulUsed to beUh huhEsthero and j. englishman:Well Ive been watching from the shadowsWhile you shook your fist at godAnd screamed for all who listenedAbout how hes done you wrongWhy dont you put away your pistolsClimb down off your crossCoz the battles long been overAnd the war is long since lostAnd now this old broken heartWeeps for the one I used to knowWho just had to be the superstarJust had to be the heroYou just had to be the heroWhy did you have to be the hero
