Hercules

(album: An Unlikely Origin Story - 2021)

While we're here
Give me something that I'll never forget
We would fly
Through the years
As if they never would end
Jumping over the fence
Before we knew where to stop

While we're here
Tell me something that you'll never regret
Your words went over my head
But they remind me of then
Jumping over the fence
Before we knew where to stop

Now I'm alive but I'm lonely
I'm not the child that you showed me to be
I'm terrified cause you know me
Better than I know myself

Ships in the night
When I found you
Now it's city lights
Where I'm finding myself
Send me a sign and I'll come back
Give me a chance to bleed
I can't be Hercules

Nowhere to hide
Or to turn to
I'm trying to find
What you see in myself
Send me a sign and I'll come back
Give me a chance to bleed
I can't be Hercules

Now I'm gone
Sold my heart to still not know what I'm worth
New York
Sees through my facade
She knows that you loved me first
No I could never pretend
As if I knew where to start

Now I'm alive but I'm lonely
I'm not the child that you showed me to be
I'm terrified cause you know me
Better than I know myself

Ships in the night
When I found you
Now it's city lights
Where I'm finding myself
Send me a sign and I'll come back
Give me a chance to bleed
I can't be Hercules

Nowhere to hide
Or to turn to I'm trying to find
What you see in myself
Send me a sign and I'll come back
Give me a chance to bleed
I can't be Hercules

What is the point of changing
If I only lose the one I love
I counted my stars to make it
But I couldn't become more than who I was
