Silverstein - A Hero Loses Everyday Lyrics

Hey! I've lost everything
Now I've gotta find a way out
Hey! They keep asking me
Where I was when it was burning
There's no trying to explain
They'll lock me up again
Throw away the key
The protagonist became
The villain they disdain
In every way
Hey! I've lost everything
But I'm gonna find a way out
Hey! Nothing's left for me
Except malady and hatred
No evidence was found
They'll let me go for now
At least till tomorrow

Hey! When tomorrow brings the morning sun again
I'll be long gone
Now! As I drive away and leave the past behind
I think I'm dying

It's so pathetic
I hate you so much, but I still miss you
Karma is hard to change
When everything you do and say is awful
Remorse is hard to fake
When you only feel sorry for yourself
I'm coughing up more blood
It's filling up my lungs
It's killing me

Hey! When tomorrow brings the morning sun again
I'll be long gone
Dead! Lying all alone on this motel room floor
I know I'm dying

Hey! (Hey!) I've lost everything
Now! (Now!) I succumb to grace
But, Hey! (Hey!) It's not that surprising
A hero loses every day
