Heroes

Heroes If I could stop time I would do it Whenever, anywhere, with whom I would circle the point of contact See it from all the different faces For then I would know the truth, just me Wouldn't that be good enough? If I could move super-quick I would do it I would gather bricks, load up mortar Build a cabin in the middle of the woods And I'd store cans of food and a week's water supply I hope it would be good enough If I could mould a future I would do it I would invest my years of ease Take all the trust in my account, and throw it out Wear the Rock beneath my feet to rubble Divert the Wind beneath my Wings to another's If I could pave a path of life That would be good enough
