There's a fire in the city Panic in the air Far from your mother's arms With a heart full of fear You see the black clouds twisting The sun's going down And every last saviour Has left the town And I know you're searching For a little bit of light Let me be your hero Let me be your hero Now the white moon is rising Blood's flowing through the streets Everyone's hiding You're down on your knees Now the vultures are flying The sun's coming up But the steel round your heart Is starting to rust Let me be your hero I'll carry you through Let me be your hero I'm lying on down Let me be your hero I'll carry you through Let me be your hero I'm lying on down Let me be your hero Let me be your hero Let me be your hero Let me be your hero Let me be your hero
