Something Corporate - Heroine Lyrics






[This song is an early version of "Punk Rock Princess". It's done only on piano with no other instruments. There is a change in lyrics near the end of the song so it's not completely the same as "Punk Rock Princess"]

Maybe when the room is empty, maybe when the bottles full,
maybe when the door gets broke down love can break in.

Maybe when I'm done with thinking, maybe you can think me whole,
maybe when I'm done with endings this can begin.

this can begin, this can begin

If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your garage band king.
You could tell me why you just don't fit in and how you're gonna be something.

Maybe when your hair gets darker, maybe when your eyes get wide,
maybe when the walls are smaller there will be more space.
Maybe when I'm not so tired, maybe you could step inside,
maybe when I look for things that I can't replace.

I can't replace, I can't replace

If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your garage band king.
You could tell me why you just don't fit in and how you're 'gonna be something.
If I could be your first real heartache I would do it over again.
If you could be my punk rock princess, I could be like heroine.

it was this time last year
your so much different now
you watched the traffic clear
you hear the cars spin out

I never thought you'd last, I never dreamed you would.
You watch your life go past, you wonder if you should.

If you should be my punk rock princess
So I could be your garage band king
You could tell me why you just don't fit in
and how you're gonna be something
If I could be your first real heartache
I would do it over again
If you could be my punk rock princess
I could be like heroine.

Whoa oh, you know you only burn my bridges
Whoa oh, You know you just can’t let it sink in
Whoa oh, you know you only burn my bridges
Whoa oh, You know you just can’t let it sink in
You could be my heroine

  1. S.... ....

    It's actually called Heroine. Any way you can change the title?

    S.... ....

    IanTheGamer // ITG exactly. The song is called Heroine.

    S.... ....

    @Shanelie - The song is called "Punk Rock Princess."

    S.... ....

    Brooke Taylor not this version

    S.... ....

    @Shanelie - "Heroine" wouldn't make sense. Andrew has recorded various versions and live recordings and people have uploaded the video with the title as "Heroin". He states what the song is about--he was a senior, dating a freshman, who was into punk rock music. In order to date her, he'd take her to shows. There isn't a recording uploaded by him/his label with anything other than "Punk Rock Princess."

  2. s.... ....

    I used to be your Punk Rock Princess.

  3. z.... ....

    This used to be our song. You used to sing it to me in the back of the car between kisses. After we ended I couldn't listen to it without crying. Now I hear it and smile... laugh at our silly matching mohawks and the skinny jeans we used to fight over. It's strange, I grew up... and you're exactly how I remember you. The memories are good ones.

    z.... ....

    many of us have gone through that too, glad to see you've worked through them and moved on. Its wonderful when you can get to that place and look back and smile at the good time.  Life is about moving forward rather than focusing on the past.   Good luck to you. 

  4. C.... R....

    This is by far the best version

  5. P.... ....

    For those wanting to know where to find this version of the song... it appeared on The Galaxy Sessions - 2001. Enjoy ;)

  6. C.... C....

    C.... C....

    Same question

    C.... C....

    +Cameron Campbell can't get this on itunes if your want it get it on convert2mp3.net

  7. S.... C....

    This version gives me chills. Way better version

  8. s.... w....

    I love this song it reminds me of all the pain

  9. H.... A....

    I prefer this version.. :/

  10. J.... C....

    Ah, the ghosts of girlfriends past. I love the pain for them, still.

  11. L.... D....

    When he sings "can't be replaced" he sounds like he is in pain. I like it

  12. t.... e....

    :) love this

  13. D.... B....

    I can't believe how long ago I first heard this. Time feels like it's just slipping away.

  14. C.... f....

    heard this when i was around 11 years old, 17 now, and this song still gives me chills :'3

  15. s.... ....

    I know it's all personal opinion, but Punk Rock Princess is garbage compared to this. These lyrics deserve a beautiful sound, and this piano is just perfect. So much emotion here!

  16. s.... a....

    love it <3

  17. I.... M....

    god i miss this.

  18. i.... ....

    Maybe with enough time passed....

    maybe we can forget....maybe when my eyes get, wide, we can release...

    For new-age 'loner' rock check out my channel.....................

  19. s.... b....

    garbage

  20. J.... D....

    Punk Rock Princes.. Dude.

  21. M.... ....

    @littlefoot2221 youre the first one who caught the main idea!!!!! congrats haha :D

  22. B.... ....

    i love this version of the song. i had it on my computer years ago but my hard drive crashed and i haven't been able to find a copy since. thanks for posting :)

  23. t.... t....

    @XBlueWingsX what was your first idea? maybe the part where he said i can be your... you can be my... 'nuff said

  24. X.... ....

    My guy friend made me a mixed CD with this song on it...

    I think he's trying to tell me something.

  25. s.... ....

    i get what PRP is about now. i think. good upload

  26. t.... ....

    @natethomas2003 that makes no sense, because as boggster15 said why would he say "I could be like heroine" he's a guy not a chick, so yeah heroin makes more sense.

  27. t.... ....

    @betamick it is heroin, what he means is he wants to be like her drug, hence why he says that "if I could be your first real heartache" meaning if he could kill her heart like heroin kills someone physically, it makes lots of sense.

  28. J.... ....

    Why would he say "I could be like heroine" that makes no sense whatsoever. Especially since he's a guy..

  29. b.... ....

    It's not "heroin", it's "heroine" as in female hero. It has nothing to do with heroin, the drug.

  30. t.... ....

    The song was called Heroin originally, they only changed the title to Punk Rock Princess because the record company didn't think the name "Heroin" would be very marketable

  31. E.... ....

    Heroin? This is Punk Rock Princess... Where did you get the title Heroin???

  32. J.... R....

    This is the original Punk Rock Princess,before the rock one from Leaving through the Window.

  33. t.... ....

    OMG I've been looking for the acoustic version of this song, where did you get this????

  34. p.... ....

    HEROIN? ma non è semplicemente la versione piano di PUNKROCK PRINCESS?
