Nobody's Hero
Lyricist:Jake Burns, Gordon Archer Ogilvie
I knew he was different in his sexuality I went to his parties as a straight minority It never seemed a threat to my masculinity He only introduced me to a wider reality
As the years went by, we drifted apart When I heard that he was gone I felt a shadow cross my heart
But he's nobody's hero, saves a drowning child Cures a wasting disease, hero, lands the crippled airplane Solves great mysteries, hero, not the handsome actor Who plays a hero's role, hero, not the glamor girl Who'd love to sell her soul if anybody's buying, nobody's hero
I didn't know the girl but I knew her family All their lives were shattered in a nightmare of brutality They try to carry on, try to bear the agony Try to hold some faith in the goodness of humanity

But she's nobody's hero, is the voice of reason Against the howling mob? Hero, is the pride of purpose In the unrewarding job? Hero, not the champion player Who plays the perfect game, hero, not the glamor boy Who loves to sell his name, everybody's buying, nobody's hero
As the years went by, we drifted apart When I heard that you were gone I felt a shadow cross my heart
But he's nobody's hero, saves a drowning child Cures a wasting disease, hero, lands the crippled airplane Solves great mysteries, hero, not the handsome actor Who plays a hero's role, hero, not the glamor girl Who'd love to sell her soul, if anybody's buying, nobody's hero, hero
