Heroes
Swim to Drown Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now it's time to put on the coat
Release the hero that sleeping inside of you
No one can save you, no one can break you
Only you can solve your problems and you know that
Maybe you think you need powers or guns
But this life is only solved with guts
You want to fly, you want to throw fire
But your inner force will strike higer
You must believe in yourself, cuz nobody else does
Not even god looks down to see your skull
Be more like spiderman in the civil war fact
He shows up in flesh and says: here i am!

And i can found my own hero
Inside of me
Cuz we are the only ones
Who can change this

Debo ser un héroe cada día
Pero eh, que no sea una utopía
Corazón caliente tío, cabeza fría
Con razón la gente se acercaba y me decía:

Es hora de mover la maquinaria
Busca una fuente real o imaginaria
Nunca la muerte fué tan inecesaria
Luz en tu mente fuerte y revolucionaria
Tan lejos siempre los unos de los otros
Tan viejos ellos y tan jóvenes nosotros
También aunque cambien el adjetivo de lugar
O su forma de jugar, el objetivo sois vosotros
Llega el momento de poner fin al caos
Conseguir unir lazos, alzaos, liberaos
No pensar en huir, eso ruin, un fracaso
Contribuir a su matriz, mejor no hacer ni caso
Basta de excusas, ya no hacen falta musas
Rompe esclusas, oro negro, mil espías rusas
Las causas son muchas aunque hoy ya nadie escucha
Van a romper la hucha tío, levántate y lucha

And i can found my own hero
Inside of me
Cuz we are the only ones
Who can change this

Debo ser un héroe cada día
Pero eh, que no sea una utopía
Corazón caliente tío, cabeza fría
Con razón la mente nunca miente ya sabía que:

Quién va a luchar hoy por tí?
No one cares, no one cares
Quién va ha apostar hoy por mi?
No one cares, no one cares
Quién va a creer hoy por fin?
No one cares, no one cares
Solo tú hermano debes decidir
I am the only one who cares

I'M THE ONLY ONE!

And i can found my own hero
Inside of me
Cuz we are the only ones
Who can change this

Debo ser un héroe cada día
Pero eh, que no sea una utopía
Corazón caliente tío, cabeza fría
Con razón la mente nunca miente ya sabía que





Ahora la gente se alejaba y ni me oía
