Shadow of a Hero

In the shadow's silent grip, I stand alone, waiting for that spark to ignite

Dreaming of a hero's kiss, to turn dark nights into shining light

Lost in a maze of doubt and fear, my world turned upside down, unclear

Searching for a reason, a sign, wondering if this climb is worth the line

Am I worthy of the fight? Is there strength within this fragile night?

Longing for someone to hold, to be brave, to be bold

Oh, tell me what it means to be a hero,

To be truthful and brave all day

Is it sacrifice or just standing tall?

To catch a fall, to save the day?

Behind every cape and mask, there's a truth we often hide

A heart that beats with courage, with love that won't subside

you wonder if the pain is fair, if the hero's worth the dare

But in your eyes I see the fire, waiting for a hero's prayer

So I stand in shadows, hoping, praying, for a hero to find me, to stay

To be my partner through the storm, through the dark, into the dawn's first ray
