This is my tale of despondence.
A chance to break away and find.
This is me trying to be honest for you.
For you.
Time will tell.

The thread's unraveled, we've come undone.

Errors and glitches show us who we are.
Close your eyes as I tear your world apart.
Time fades like footsteps in the snow.
Save me, and I'll save you too.

I saw you give it all for me.
My heart bleeds,
Wracked with tears of guilt.
I can't know if there's still hope for me.
Dare I ask of you to lift me up again?

Now, as we march towards an end unknown,
Hold me.
It's now or never, we're drifting away.
The earth moved slowly while we wandered astray.

A solipsist feels no fear of consequence.
Right or wrong, I cried 'set me free'.

As I walk the world in solitude,
I still feel your flesh pressed against my skin.
I can't know if there's still hope for me.
Dare I ask of you to lift me up again?

It's now or never, we're drifting away.
The earth moved slowly while we wandered astray.

Delusion, confusion, subliminal pollution.
Distraction, inaction, cognitive redaction.
Closely caressing the strangers on the screen,
Living our lives through someone else's dream.

My friend, I can't see the things you see,
Nevermind, cos we're living vicariously.

My friend, my friend my friend,
I can't feel what you need to feel
To come alive.
Reboot, retry.

Our lives are monuments to Narcissus.
We drown in the river.

Our lives are monuments to Narcissus.
We drown in the river.
We found the heroes that we deserve.

Hope means regret.

Delusion, confusion, subliminal pollution.
Distraction, inaction, cognitive redaction.
Closely caressing the strangers on the screen,
Living our lives through someone else's dream.

My friend, I can't see the things you see,
Nevermind, cos we're living vicariously.

My friend, my friend my friend,
I can't feel what you need to feel
To come alive.
Reboot, retry.

I thought I'd never live to see our days just fade into silence.
Is today the day that we've got nothing to say?
Or have we changed?
And don't you think that we deserve to testify to the state of our culture?
Do you think our forefathers would be proud of us?

We drown in the river.

My friend, I can't see the things you see,
Nevermind, cos we're living vicariously.

My friend, my friend my friend,
I can't feel what you need to feel
To come alive.
Reboot, retry.

I'm breaking away from the driftwood and dead ends.
Coming back from a world that I turned my back on.
Turning tides, cos only the brave find hope.
No filters now, I won't hide the truth from the world.

Only The Brave

Pour a glass of red revenge,
Settle down on your throne of emotion.
Spare a thought for your lowly subjects.

I pierced your hollow smile
In the nick of time (in the nick of time).
I hear the windows shaking.
We're on a train bound straight for the gates of hell.

We're on a train bound straight for the gates of hell.

My hope buried deeper and deeper.
Blackened shorelines, suspended in time.

Coming back again and again (I'm coming back, I'm coming back).
I see right though, I see right through your hollow smile
And I'm coming back, and I'm coming back.
I'm coming back again.

Your love was never enough for me.
Turning the page, or digging my grave?
Over and over again.

Our bones rest in a lover's grave.
Our bones rest not in our hearts.

A time for wounds and a time for healing.
Our bones rest in a lover's grave.

Man's darkest day.

Coming back again and again (I'm coming back, I'm coming back).
I see right though, I see right through your hollow smile
And I'm coming back, and I'm coming back.
I'm coming back again.

I've been here before and I'm back again.
I'll survive on my own with no weight to bear.
You're on the train straight,
Straight to the gates of hell.

I'm off that path, I'm doing well.
I'm doing well.

Lyrics: Richard Thompson

No Heroes are a melodic metalcore band from Christchurch, New Zealand.

Made up of former members of Beneath the Silence, We The Night Sky, The Blackwood Affair and Alison Lake, we are now the old guys who still play music and wish we were famous.

We make music for those who used to mosh, but then either had kids, or sold their guitar amps.
