Heroes
K.O. PATRIA Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You had everything you wanted in the world
You wandered through the galaxies
But the only thing you wanted was me
Whatever happened to our heroes
They turned to dust and blew away
A bitter unrequited love
You were the one I'm dreaming of
All you wanted was my beautiful face
Whatever happened to our heroes
They turned to dust and blew away
Whatever happened to our heroes
They turned to dust and blew away
Whatever happened to our heroes
They turned to dust and blew away
In K.O. PATRIA's song "Heroes," the lyrics speak to a sense of longing and loss for something that once existed.

The repetition of the line "Whatever happened to our heroes, they turned to dust and blew away" adds to the sense of loss and nostalgia for what once was.
The song also touches on the idea of forbidden love being the sweetest taste, with the singer describing the hero's desire for their "beautiful face."

You were brave, you were bold
You were not afraid to take risks and stand out from the crowd
You had everything you wanted in the world
You were successful and had achieved all of your desires
You wandered through the galaxies
You had explored many parts of the world and had diverse experiences
But the only thing you wanted was me
Despite all your accomplishments, your focus was solely on winning my affection
Whatever happened to our heroes
As time passed, our idols and role models lost their status and disappeared
They turned to dust and blew away
Our heroes' influence and legacies have faded away over time
A bitter unrequited love
The relationship we had was filled with negative emotions due to your unreturned affection
You were the one I'm dreaming of
Despite everything, I still had feelings for you and thought about you often
Forbidden fruit the sweetest taste
The things that are prohibited or hard to attain often become the most desirable
All you wanted was my beautiful face
Your interest in me was solely based on my physical appearance
