Heros and Heroin

Heros and ..... heroin What do u do If the person u look up to Is a crumpled mess on the floor What do u do If the person u look up to Doesn't do anything worth looking up to them for They say "my dads my hero" or "my mums the hero for me" Well.. my dad threw my mum against the tv But she stood back up, so she's a hero too But also a heroin, I guess u are what u do Heroin to get her high and crack to bring her back Back to just the same old crap That's she's desperate to escape so she smokes again And again and again and again and again So my hero has descended right down to the gutter But I know deep down that's just isn't her So my hero is being heroin for now But without a cape just a wrap of brown I do have faith once more she will rise And be that hero again in my eyes
