Real human being, being… (repeat)
and a real hero, hero… (repeat)

Back against the wall at odds
With the strength of the will and a cause
Your pursuits are called “outstanding”, though emotionally complex.

Against the grain of dystopic claims
of the thoughts your actions entertain, 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, and a real hero,
Real human being (repeat)

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

All are warmer than his head so cool,
That guy knew just 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, and a real hero,
Real human being,
Real human being,

Real human being
(To fade)
