Bullet Proof Hero
Dangerous New Machine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
at all the things I did
And I realize the short term consequence
Fear, no nothing had faced me
I was going full speed, no one could have stopped me
I'm not bulletproof
You're not bulletproof
I'm not bulletproof
You're not bulletproof
But it doesn't mean that I can't ever be the hero
Words my mother said
The things my father did
The messages they've sent
I deleted them
Came to this conclusion
No one's gonna tell me anything
I'm not bulletproof
You're not bulletproof
Doesn't matter no one's ever going to be a hero
I'm not bulletproof
You're not bulletproof
But it doesn't mean that I can't ever be the hero
If I could fly away
I never have to be the one to lie in vain
pretend that nothing matters
If I could get away
never have to live with all of my mistakes
But i can't fake anymore
I'm not bulletproof
You're not bulletproof
Doesn't matter no one's ever going to be a hero
I'm not bulletproof
You're not bulletproof
But it doesn't mean that i can't ever be the hero
Your hero
The lyrics to Dangerous New Machine's “Bullet Proof Hero” is an introspective look at one's past mistakes and how they shape who they are today. The song opens with recollection of past actions that brought out certain consequences but at the time, they didn’t have any fear. The singer acknowledges that no one is invincible and that everyone has their weak moments. They stress the idea that being a hero is an unattainable fantasy because no one is perfect. The song is a reflection of personal growth and the struggles that come with it.
The second verse of the song focuses on the influence of the singer’s parents and their messages. The singer chooses to delete their messages and concludes that no one can tell them what to do. The decision to delete the messages represents breaking free from the expectations of others and finding one’s true self. The chorus portrays the idea that although nobody is invincible or perfect, it does not mean that they cannot be a hero. The singer longs to escape from the burden of their past mistakes but realises that it is not possible.
Overall, "Bullet Proof Hero" expresses the ideology of self-improvement and the idea that no one is perfect, but everyone has the ability to be a hero. The song encourages individuals to realise their potential, even with the challenges and past disappointments they may have faced.
