Hero Of The Day

Mama they try and break me
The window burns to light the way back home
A light that warms no matter where they've gone

They're off to find the hero of the day
But what if they should fall
By someone's wicked way

Still the window burns time so slowly turns
Someone there is sighing
Keepers of the flames
Can't you feel your names
Can't you hear your babies crying (yeah)

Mama they try and break me
Still they try and break me
Excuse me while I tend to how I feel
These things return to me that still seem real
Now deservingly this easy chair
But the rocking stops by wheels of despair

Don't want your aid
But the fist I've made for years
Won't hold or feel
No I'm not all me
So please excuse me while I tend to how I feel

But now the dreams and waking screams that ever last through the night
So build a wall behind it crawl and hide until it's light
Can't you hear your babies crying now
I can't hear you

Still the window burns time so slowly turns
Someone there is sighing
Keepers of the flames
Can't you feel your names
Can't you hear your babies crying

But now the dreams and waking screams that ever last the night
So build a wall behind it crawl and hide until it's light
Can't you hear your babies crying now

Mama they try and break me
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try mama they try hey
Mama they try and break me (Mama they try and break me)
Mama they try and break me (Mama they try and break me)
Mama they try and break me (Mama they try and break me)
Mama they try mama they try (oohhheeaah)
Mama
