Hero Lyrics - The Long Fall Back To Earth - Jars Of Clay

One spot on an empty canvas 

One chair in an empty room 

No place for a revolution 

And no hope if the signs are true 

We stand at the edge of something 

Will we ever know what it is? 

Hold on 'cause the wind is rising 

And we can't get away from it 

We're in shock from the failed emotion 

No cause in the shadow land 

And we sing while the city's burning 

But no room, no escape, no plan 

We all never thought it would end this way 

And we need a hero to save us from ourselves 

We need a hero to save us from ourselves 

Save us from ourselves, save us from our fear 

When the sirens wail we need a hero here 

We hide on our knees in silence 

Maybe God doesn't hear at all 

And the wait overtakes the violence 

And we watch as the giants fall 

We're not gonna let it end this way 

We need a hero to save us from ourselves 

We need a hero to save us from ourselves 

Save us from ourselves, save us from our fear 

When the sirens wail we need a hero here 

Save us from ourselves, save us from our fear 

When the sirens wail we need a hero here 

Save us from ourselves, save us from our fear 

When the sirens wail we need a hero here, yeah 

Save us from ourselves, save us from our fear 

When the sirens wail we need a hero here 

Save us from ourselves, save us from our fear 

When the sirens wail we need a hero 

(We need a hero to save us from ourselves) 

Save us from our fear 

(We need a hero to save us from ourselves) 

We need a hero here
