Heroes
Alessofeat. Tove Lo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We go undercover, wait out the sun
Got a secret side in plain sight
Where the streets are empty, that’s where we run
Everyday people do everyday things but I
Can't be one of them
I know you hear me now, we are a different kind
We could be heroes
We could be heroes, me and you
We could be heroes
We could be heroes, me and you
We could be
Anybody’s got the power
They don't see it cause they don't understand
Spin around and round for hours
You and me, we got the world in our hands
Everyday people do everyday things but I
Can't be one of them
I know you hear me now, we are a different kind
We can do anything
We could be heroes
We could be heroes, me and you
We could be heroes
We could be heroes, me and you
We could be
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
Me and you
We could be
All we're looking for is love and a little light
Love and a little light
(We could be)
All we're looking for is love and a little light
Love and a little light
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
Me and you
We could be
In "Heroes," Alesso and Tove Lo describe a secret side that they have, where they can escape from everyday life and spend time together. They suggest that they are a different kind of people, who are not content with living out the usual routine. They say that everyone has the power, but they just need to see it and believe in themselves. The two remind each other that they have each other's backs and that they can achieve anything they set their minds to. They sing that they could be heroes, able to conquer the world together.
The song speaks to anyone who may feel like they are stuck in a routine or may even feel like an outcast. It empowers people to believe in themselves and each other and to chase their dreams, regardless of societal norms or expectations. It encourages listeners to find someone who can be their partner in crime, their hero, and go on adventures with them. The beat of the song is upbeat and energetic, adding to the feeling of empowerment and motivation.

We go hideaway in daylight
We go undercover when under sun
Got a secret side in plain sight
Where the streets are empty
That's where we run
Everyday people do
Everyday things but I
Can't be one of them
I know you hear me now
We are a different kind
We can do anything
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
Me and you
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
Me and you, we could be
Anybody's got the power
They don't see it
'Cause they don't understand
Spinnin' around and run for hours
You and me we got the world in our hands
Everyday people do
Everyday things but I
Can't be one of them
I know you hear me now
We are a different kind
We can do anything
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
Me and you
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
Me and you, we could be
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
Me and you, we could
All we're looking for is love and a little light
Love and a little light
We could be
All we're looking for is love and a little light
Love and a little light
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
Me and you
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
Me and you, we could be

We could hide away in daylight
We go undercover, wait out the sun
Got a secret side in plain sight
Where the streets are empty, that's where we run
Everyday people do everyday things
