No More Heroes

Lyrics

[Intro] Dirty synth pulse • drum machine kick • fuzzy hot-rod guitar riff [Verse 1] Everybody’s standin’ ‘round the scene, Holdin’ up a phone like a TV screen. Lights flashin’ but nobody moves, Frozen in the moment like they’re lockstep grooves. Used to be a spark when the trouble hit, Somebody jump first, never quit. Now the fire’s gone where the brave once stood— Guess they lost the rhythm of the greater good. [Chorus] No more heroes— Just a crowd with their backs to the flame. No more heroes— All watchin’ while they’re playin’ the blame game. But I feel a rumble growin’ low, A little shake in the streetlight glow— ‘Cause we got no more heroes… Not yet. [Verse 2] Saw a man fall by the railroad line, People gathered up, but they’re wastin’ time. Every face lit blue from a tiny glow, But not one heartbeat steady and ready to go. Where’s that old-school, red-line spark— The midnight thunder in the dark? I heard a pulse cut through the noise, Somethin’ real strong, not just background toys. [Chorus] No more heroes— Neon shadows watchin’ the show. No more heroes— Hands in pockets, nobody wants to go. But there’s a tremble in the crowd tonight, A spark hidin’ in the traffic lights— Where there were no more heroes… Somethin’s changin’. [Bridge] Then one man stepped, boots hittin’ the ground, Cut through fear with a fearless sound. Didn’t wait, didn’t pause, didn’t count to three— Just tore right in like he broke the key. And the crowd leaned in, And a second moved, Then a third jumped forward— The whole groove improved. [Final Chorus] Now we got heroes— Spreadin’ like a fever through the street. Yeah, we got heroes— Everyday people findin’ their beat. One spark lit a hundred souls, Turned shy hearts into rock and roll— All it ever really takes Is one real hero. [Outro] Synth growl • gated drums • hot-rod fuzz riff fading into neon
