Words:

Don't Meet Your Heroes
is what they're always saying to me
don't meet your heroes
'cause they're never who you want them to be
if I could meet my heroes
they probably wouldn't want me around
so I won't meet my heroes
and they can never let me down

ever since they were young they never need someone to fight their battles for them
and ever since they could stand they had their back to the man who said they couldn't cut it
but all the stories seem stranger than fiction
of all the glory and all the conviction
give me hope for a life that I could never afford

but they seem so far away

So Don't Meet Your Heroes
is what they're always telling me
don't meet your heroes
'cause they're never who you want them to be
if I could meet my heroes
they probably wouldn't want me around
so I won't meet my heroes
and they can never let me down

All I wanted to say was you're the reason I stay
but you just wouldn't hear it (Wouldn't hear it)
and all I wanted to do was be somebody like you
but you just broke my spirit (broke my spirit)
so all the stories I heard were just fiction
you're not the hero I saw in my vision
how could someone so cruel but the one we adore?

So Don't Meet Your Heroes
is what they're always telling me
don't meet your heroes
'cause they're never who you want them to be
if I could meet my heroes
they probably wouldn't want me around
so I won't meet my heroes
and they can never let me down

How could they save you? oh
They're just people too, just like me and you
What do they owe you? oh
They're just people too, just like me and you
just like me and you

So Don't Meet Your Heroes
is what everybody says to me
don't meet your heroes
'cause they're never who you want them to be
if I could meet my heroes
they probably wouldn't want me around
so I won't meet my heroes
and they can never let me down
