We were told how the story should go
Strangers in time fighting ancient foes
And that only the way we perceive it
Has changed, it still remains
Somehow it's always right against wrong
Always the chance of temptation
But it's never as simple as black or white
Day or night

Ever searching for secrets of life
Missing the moments of being alive
But most important things can't be told
They're in your soul
Put away all your worry and pain
Destiny doesn't change things
When you find out what you really need
How will you know
How will I know

Well we all need a hero
Of mythical size
To explain what we can't understand
And we all need a hero
To sacrifice his soul
Where's the hero
With a thousand eyes
With another foolproof plan
You only can see through
The strange disguise
Any maybe find yourself
Deep inside this living hell
That knows you oh so well, knows you so well

Now we won't need a hero
With a thousand eyes
To explain what we can't understand
We won't need a hero
To sacrifice his soul
Who's the hero
With a thousand eyes
With another useless plan
Now we see through
The strange disguise
So you can find yourself
Deep inside this living hell
That knows you oh so well
Knows you so well.
