Real human being and a real hero
Real human being and a real hero

Back against the wall and odds
With the strength of a will and a cause
Your pursuit's are called outstanding
You're emotionally complex

Against the grain of dystopic claims
On the thoughts your actions entertained
And you have proved to be a real human being
And a real hero real human being
And a real hero real human being

A pilot on a cold, cold morn'
One hundred fifty-five people on board
All safe and all rescued
From the slowly sinking ship

Water warmer than his head
So cool in that tight bind knew what to do
And you have proved to be

A real human being and a real hero
Real human being and a real hero
Real human being and a real hero
Real human being
