He's lived as long as he possibly can Given the circumstance Cause he's protected himself from the world He never gave it a chance And he says: Here in my security I've put a limit on my self-potential And my possibility She's seen these walls and they never change Everything's in its place Her relationships so neatly arranged Down to religion and race And she says: Here in my security I don't make a move unless my friends approve I do what's expected of me And as I grow older And there's so much that I do not know I'm drawn to those who are bolder And go where no one dare to go And I sleep And I dream of the person I might have been Then I'll be free again And I speak Like someone who's been to the highest peaks And back again And I swear That my grass is greener than anyone's 'Til I believe again Then I wake And the dream fades away and I face the day And I realize That there's got to be some hero in me There's got to be some hero in me They've been suppressing their every desire They do nothing on a whim She's lost her sparkle and he's lost the fire Their future looks very dim And I say: Here in my security I've simply let myself go I've developed a co-dependency And as I grow older So many places that I've never been Time's tapping my shoulder I hope it's never too late to begin And I sleep And I dream of the person I might have been And I'll be free again And I speak Like someone who's been to the highest peak And back again And I swear That my grass is greener than anyone's 'Til I believe again Then I wake And the dream fades away yet I face the day And I realize That there's got to be some hero in me There's got to be some hero in me
