No Hero Lyrics - Singles - Dream Atlantic

They call me hero 

So call me hero 

I am no hero 

Back to the trenches once again 

Fending off the rotting soaking stench 

So I can take a man's life 

A man just like myself 

For god, for country, for kings 

But for nothing 

Two thousand miles from my home 

But many more from my conscious 

Because I spilled blood 

Waving a white flag 

They call me hero 

I am no hero 

We shutter and cringe 

Underground like rats while their war machines bludgeon 

The land above they make the sky 

Perfect for destruction 

While we scour the dirt like vermin 

Can we resurface after winter 

Like the animal killing for dinner 

This is our day 

Our day to be lions 

Building the courage 

Shedding the fear 

Oh, what drives men to destroy for others 

Its in our nature to brutalize 

We are no more than the animals 

For god, for country, for kings 

But for nothing
