lyrics

I used to think you were a golden god
I once thought you were the moon
You were ten feet tall and within your palm
You held my world inside your hand

I dreamed to touch the sky you walked upon
I dreamed to feel your boldest blues
You were all I had, you were all I had
It was all, it was all for you

Then I found out all my heroes are human
All my heroes are human too

By the window you stood statuesque and still
With a cold, cold stare I never dared to say a word
Sometimes you’d raise your hand but it would never fall
It would never fall upon my head

A floating fiery spirit with your eyes a-burning wild
You would weave wonderful words into fantastic fairy tales
And I would follow you to me it all was true
I believed, I believed

Then I found out all my heroes are human
All my heroes are human too

I feel you in my head

You were scared
You were scarred

You were all I had

And I’ll be there soon with you
And it’s all in good time

The time is right now
