Not a Hero

Jan 11, 2006 18:33


He's not the hero they make him out to be
because really,
he can't even save himself.
To tell the truth, it's all coincidence
that he was there in the beginning:
at the right time
at the right place
at the end.

He was there when the world rained red
where the real heroes fought
and fell.

There was no love, no faith, no power of friendship,
only rage and anger and pain.
Friends, Lovers, Famliy died,
and he killed the other
in retribution.

He never meant to save the world;
He never wanted to save the world;
He's not the hero they make him out to be-
He just survived.
