Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I clock in with a scar
On the inside of my ribs
Another call, another body
Another thing I can’t unsee
I learned to keep my hands steady
While my mind ran wild
You ask me how I’m holding up
I say, “I’m fine” and smile
[Pre-Chorus]
But the ambulance still follows me
Home through my head at night
Every red light feels like blood
Every knock like another fight
[Chorus]
I need a hero
I need a hand
Pull me out
If you understand
It’s just another war
Inside my skin
I hear the psycho in my head
Again, again
I need a hero
I need a name
Someone to hold
The shaking frame
The ones that didn’t make it back home
Still call my name
[Verse 2]
Therapy chair, paper cup
I spill it all at once
How trauma bonds to every face
That I tried to save
PTSD in the ceiling fan
Anxiety in my chest
Depression sits across from me
And says, “You did your best”
[Pre-Chorus]
But the hallway gets too narrow
And the dark gets too loud
I can wear the uniform
Still drown in a crowd
[Chorus]
I need a hero
I need a hand
Pull me out
If you understand
It’s just another war
Inside my skin
I hear the psycho in my head
Again, again
I need a hero
I need a name
Someone to hold
The shaking frame
The ones that didn’t make it back home
Still call my name
[Bridge]
[Half-time]
If I fold, I fold in pieces
If I break, don’t look away
I kept a thousand strangers breathing
Now help me find my way
I’m not ashamed of the wreckage
I’m not ashamed to need
A little light in the room with me
A little peace to breathe
[Final Chorus]
I need a hero
I need a hand
Pull me out
If you understand
It’s just another war
Inside my skin
I hear the psycho in my head
Again, again
I need a hero
I need a name
Someone to hold
The shaking frame
The ones that didn’t make it back home
Still call my name
[Outro]
Still call my name
Still call my name
I need a hero
