In town for one night only, lust, fame and a feeling of the holy
A new king is crowned for your delight, yeah all right
Single file it's just that easy, a mere man to adore and believe me
Soon you'll be screaming crucify with delight

Take it back before I fall, because I am no hero
Take it back before I fall, because I am no hero

Behind the curtain there stands a statue, designed to sell as many as we want to
The consequences aren't worth your time, we're divine
A fresh idol for a suffering nation, a clean lamb for your slaughtering elation
Another victim of our need to be weak

So take it back take it back before I fall
I am no, I am no hero, hero
So take it back take it back before I fall
I am no, I am no hero, hero

The lights are on, the stage is set for failure
In your minds, I will burn in effigy
Burn, burn, burn forever, forever, forever

So take it back take it back before I fall
I am no, I am no hero, hero
So take it back take it back before I fall
I am no, I am no hero, hero
