Section A Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Their treason has left you with nowhere left to hide
Get out of there
No second chance
Can't you see you're all betrayed
Don't look back
Don't turn around
There is no time to be afraid
They fooled you and you should know they're on a loosing war
They made you a scapegoat now you have lost the fight
Get out of there
No second chance
Can't you see you're all betrayed
Don't look back
Don't turn around
Haven't you been told there are no
Heroes
Standing at the front line always in control
Heroes
You will all be left behind
The picture inside your head has left an ugly scar
Black nightmares seems endless like some eternal war
Get out of there
No second chance
Can't you see you're all betrayed
Don't look back
Don't turn around
Haven't you been told there are no
Heroes
Standing at the front line always in control
Heroes
You will all be left behind
Heroes
Standing at the front line always in control
You will all be left behind
The song "Heroes" by Section A is a powerful anthem about betrayal, loss, and the absence of heroes. The lyrics convey the message that even those who seem to have everything under control can be let down by those they trust, leaving them with nothing but scars and painful memories. The chorus is particularly poignant, emphasizing the futility of trying to be a hero when the odds are stacked against you.
The first verse describes a failed mission and the betrayal of the singer by those they thought they could rely on. The lyrics urge the singer to flee, as there is no second chance and no time to be afraid. The second verse echoes this sentiment, warning that the singer has been made a scapegoat and will be left behind if they stay.
The bridge of the song speaks to the toll that betrayal can take on a person's mental health, with the "picture inside your head" leaving an "ugly scar" and the nightmares seeming "endless like some eternal war."
Overall, "Heroes" is a powerful song with a message that is likely to resonate with anyone who has ever felt let down by those they trusted.
