Hero

Who knows what you'll find when you look inside?

Haunted beach, roll the dice

The zombies in the corner aren't amused

Play the part of the blushing bride

Tame the horse and take it for a ride

This thread of consolation comes loose

I could've been a hero, I could've been a zero

Could've been all these things

I could've been nothing, I could've been bluffing

Could've been all these things

And if I am unable, tell him that I'll try

But underneath the table

I will spin the wheel and hope for gold

I've seen the road and I've seen it hide

Out of view, cloaked by night

I want my forty acres in the sun

Bitter winds come in from the north

My spirit dims, but I feel the force

"No longer in my hands," I say to you

I could've been a hero, I could've been a zero

Could've been all these things

I could've been nothing, I could've had something

Could've been all these things

And if I am unable, tell him that I'll try

But underneath the table

I will spin the wheel and hope for gold

Oh, and where it stops, nobody knows

Could've been, would've been, should've should've been

Could've been, would've been

Would've been, should've been, I could've been

I could've been a hero, I could've been a zero

Could've been all these things

I could've been nothing, I could've been something

Could've been all these things

And if I am unable, tell him that I'll try

Underneath the table

Hope for gold

Where it stops, nobody knows
