My Heroics Part One
Absynthe Minded Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Enough said, the make-shift
Is a comfortable chair
Sit back and I'll tell you
We are living in fear
And I don't know
Why you talk so rough
Why should I be
Not sure of my-
self my intentions
They are crystal clear
I wanna pay my duty
To your daddy dear
Hold on to your decency
I'll make you whole
And we'll be free

Isn't it always so?
The story is unfold, at least
You got a different role
And now you gotta quit the scene

I favour your flavour
I'm confronting you
You stroke a bad patch
With the man who has you
And baby won't you
Consider me
I'll make you whole
And we'll be free
And we're driving along
On a Saturday night
We're feeling alright
Everything's in sight
And baby won't you
Consider me
I'll make you whole
And we'll be free

Isn't it always so?
The story is unfold, at least
You got a different role
And now you gotta quit the scene

Isn't it always so?
The story is unfold, at least
You got a different role
And now you gotta quit the scene

Isn't it always so?
The story is unfold, at least
You got a different role
And now you gotta quit the scene

Overall Meaning

"My Heroics Part One" by Absynthe Minded is a song that touches upon themes of fear, identity, and sacrifice in the context of a romantic relationship. The singer urges their lover to leave behind their current partner, whom they refer to as "the man who has you," and join them in a better life. The make-shift comfortable chair mentioned in the opening verse can be seen as a metaphor for the singers' current situation, which is easy but ultimately unsatisfying. They want something more fulfilling and authentic, represented by their desire to "pay [their] duty to [their lover's] daddy dear" and "make [them] whole."


However, the singer's sense of self is not completely certain. They acknowledge that they are not sure of their own intentions but are clear about their desire to be with their lover. The repetition of the line "Isn't it always so? The story is unfold, at least / You got a different role / And now you gotta quit the scene" suggests that the singer recognizes the difficulties of their situation and the sacrifices that may have to be made. The song closes on a hopeful note, with the singer and their lover driving along on a Saturday night and feeling free.


Overall, "My Heroics Part One" is a poignant reflection on the complexities of love and the sacrifices necessary to attain it.
