Tegan And Sara - I'm Not Your Hero Lyrics






Standing where I am now, standing up at all
I was used to feeling like I was never gonna see myself at the finish line
Hanging on to parts of me, hanging on at all
I was used to seeing no future in my sight line

Sometimes it feels like they wanna remind me
Send all those villains after me

I'm not their hero
But that doesn't mean that I wasn't brave
I never walked the party line
Doesn't mean that I was never afraid
I'm not your hero
But that doesn't mean we're not one and the same

Feeling like I am now lighting up the hall
I was used to standing in the shadow of a damaged heart
Learning all I know now, losing all I did
I never used to feel like I'd be standing so far ahead

Sometimes it feels what I recovered you lost
Sending your peaceful loss to me

I'm not their hero
But that doesn't mean that I wasn't brave
I never walked the party line
Doesn't mean that I was never afraid
I'm not your hero
But that doesn't mean we're not one and the same

Sometimes it feels like the side that I'm on
Plays the toughest hand, holds the longest stand
Sometimes it feels like I'm all that they've got
It's so hard to know I'm not what they want

Sometimes it feels like the side that I'm on
Plays the toughest hand, holds the longest stand
Sometimes it feels like I'm all that they've got
It's so hard to know I'm not what they want

I'm not their hero
But that doesn't mean that I wasn't brave
I never walked the party line
Doesn't mean that I was never afraid
I'm not your hero
But that doesn't mean we're not one and the same
I do my best to walk the finest line
Till I've had all that I can take

    Ughh they need to be main stream!! they're music is too good!

  38. A.... ....

    I don't think that one can know just how good they are until they see them live. Yes, they're that good.

  39. j.... ....

    can you guys believe they aren't considered mainstream! they are way better than most mainstream singers and have way more songs than most mainstream singers. it's unbelievable

    j.... ....

    jjm2412 They've outlasted dozens & dozens of 'mainstream' artists who came & went. They've built their band over 15 years & are truly inspiring.

    j.... ....

    jjm2412 I’m glad they are not .. keeps them special and sacred

    j.... ....

    Come on, now!!! I first bought their CD, This Business of Art, back in their garage alt rock days in 2,000. Nearly every song was good. I've followed them ever since. I can't be the only one.

    j.... ....

    This Business of Art is not the first cd...

    j.... ....

    ​@ThePeachJames He didn't say it was. He clearly said it was the first of their CDs he bought...

  62. D.... Z....

    I heard this song for the first time about 2 weeks ago when I flew to Germany with Air Canada and immediately fell in love with it

  63. S.... F....

    I miss it! 

  64. P.... Y....

    amazing song I ever heard

  65. b.... s....

    fuwaaaaak i miss this song. why is it making me cry!

  66. v.... m....

    Love this song!!  It can apply to so many people, in so many different life situations... totally did for me....

  67. T.... T....

    There are a lot of comments saying that they have never heard of this band. Listen to their songs "My number" (awesome) and "All you got" from their "Business of Art" album. In fact the whole album was awesome. It was released in 2000, and back then, I went through 2 CD'S of it (those were the little plastic discs they use to play music on in ancient history). These girls have been the bomb for a LONG time.

    T.... T....

    now I feel old ;_;

    T.... T....

    +Tony Tonytony I discovered this group about a month ago, and am loving them.

    T.... T....

    KEEP LISTENING!! Go deep into their discography, because I honestly can not tell you- there are just a million songs by them that are FCKING INCREDIBLE. Just to throw some out there listen to- "The Con", "Take me Anywhere", "Monday, Monday, Monday", "Love Type thing", "Alligator", "Superstar", "Dark Come Soon", "I hear Noises", "I'll Take the Blame", pretty much every song they have written, including all unreleased tracks, are gorgeous works of art.

  68. S.... J....

    Beth brought me here!!!

    S.... J....

    Oh i thought maybe it was like a show lol😂

    S.... J....

    @Reanna AndersoN Might be. I have no idea. I just guessed that it is a person...

    S.... J....

    She's one of the most famous YouTubers. Search Bethany Mota anywhere and you'll find her

    S.... J....

    Ohh i know who she is.

    S.... J....

    Same. Thanks to beth and her spotify :)

  69. S.... M....

    who needs video. just listen and enjoy

  70. H.... W....

    Help! I listened to this with LaFerry subtext and now I'm crying!!!

    H.... W....

    +Haley W Thank you very much -_- :'(

  71. h.... ....

    Amazing song. So catchy, sexy, upbeat and addictive.

  72. J.... M....

    My new favorite song :o) 

  73. C.... F....

    Do you know this new remix of I Was A Fool by Mr. Melo D? Its awesome!!!
    https://soundcloud.com/mr-melo-d/tegan-and-sara-i-was-a-fool

  74. C.... L....

    Simple, people bought into the idea that we need free trade to progress as a society, and that has replaced free human beings. Doubt we ever had enough free thinkers to carry the promise of democracy anyway but from here on it is definitely all downhill. Caring more about some undefined collective goal instead of real people is what brought about the downfall of all so called "great" civilizations. Or where they really that great?

    C.... L....

    Huh ...? ? ?

  75. R.... 1....

    Great song, great album!!!

  76. P.... A....

    2 years went by,    How many more years if ever untill we meet?

  77. C.... ....

    hey i'm from calgary and i"m so sorry for this trite dishwater.

    C.... ....

    Where's Calgary




    ;)

    C.... ....

    Where is it





































































    :-)

    C.... ....

    I was going to tell you but then I saw the smiley face









































    :)

  78. C.... L....

    Awesome!!!!I want to know how they make their voice sound electronic . Wish I had their autograph!!!

  79. V.... ....

    Anyone notice this song's got a pretty similar chorus melody as lady gaga's bad romance? Nice track, though.

    V.... ....

    You are right when i was in my car, i heard this song and i otight it was bad romance XDD!

  80. z.... z....

    I like this best as the live acoustic. I think it's the singular voice. 'still like the overall feel, but I like the value of the singular voice.

  81. S.... H....

    love love

  82. M.... H....

    I love this song. It's a must listen before I go to work. I have a lot of responsibility that rests on my shoulders and this song helps me to power thru those tough days. And after a hard day. It's played a lot!!!

  83. T.... ....

    FUUUUUCCCCKKKK snacktime ads!

  84. K.... H....

    Am I the only one that has a hard time watching the audio-only videos? When listening to them, I just want to look at them while doing it, lol. They're so damn beautimus.

    K.... H....

    Well, the only reason they make audio videos is so people can listen to them in the background of doing something. Your question is like asking "Am I the only one who has a hard time listening to music videos?"

    K.... H....

    I understand why they make them. Not like I was trying to make some profound statement, just talking about how hot they are.

    K.... H....

    If you have a Penis , there not interested ...lol

    K.... H....

    they need more fan vids or music vids of them because i feel the same way

  85. A.... D....

    Their voices and harmonies are as good or better than ever... Even the newest album sounds great live and they are still very acoustic and in tune with their audience... Hearthrob got them more noticed in the States, so that's pretty awesome... I wonder where they go from here? I believe this was their last contracted Album for the Warner Label....Hmmm!!

  86. l.... ....

    i was really hoping this song wouldn't be from them when I first heard this song on the radio. It kinda just ruined the song. Idk why, I don't like the whole Tegan and Sara thing. I just can't understand the hype.

    l.... ....

    uh.. so you liked the song until you found out it was them? how does that make sense?

  87. J.... ....

    This song is the center of my universe 

  88. A.... W....

    I NEEEEED  to see them live! 

  89. J.... J....

    This is my current favorite song!!!

  90. L.... T....

    You two are awesome!! Keep up the good work I hope to see you guys in concert in London in late July..

  91. Y.... T....

    מהמם!!!!! זו ההפתעה הכי מגניבה ever

  92. D.... Q....

    I "LOVE" their music.  They are very talented twins.  Keep up the good music Tegan and Sara.

  93. R.... B....

    This song is really good to listen to over and over again..

  94. j.... b....

    i wish they would stop using so much of what ever makes there voices sound electronic, and go back to more acoustic. i still like this music but i have to admit i like there old stuff better.

    j.... b....

    @jordan bodkin To me its not a major change. I have been following there music since Under Feet like ours, their first album. They write songs the same way and the genre may have changed slightly but its been a nice transition. Its annoying when people say they don't like their new stuff because then you wouldn't have liked their old stuff either because it was different. However it was still good, and they have always been considered Indie.

    j.... b....

    I couldn't get into their older music. But this CD I think is fantastic, I like the different change.

    j.... b....

    yeah its something other people can like its just not personally my style of music.

    j.... b....

    #suckstobeyou  

    j.... b....

    you like the older stuff cos you is old sis, they sound better in tune ;)

  95. S.... B....

    Please tell me you love me <3 

  96. a.... ....

    This song makes me feel good all the time. Amazing music!

  97. n.... ....

    When this first came out I was like "oh maybe this is just like the On Directing of this album, I'm sure the other songs will sound different and better" and now that I've listened to the whole album this is the only song I like

    n.... ....

    @Kevin andMeg Only thing free in the world ;)

    n.... ....

    You seriously don't like closer?

    n.... ....

    hate it.

    n.... ....

    @noahfoxx
     Honestly I hated the whole album when I first heard it... but it's slowly grown a song or two on me. I guess I just liked their older stuff much more. I mean they're not bad, I'm not total fangirl raging about selling out etc it's just I preffered their old sound. :P

    n.... ....

    You people have bad taste if you don't like this song lol....
