Long have I filled cups with water
Hoping it would be wine
Trying to be Jesus
Miracle hunting to be good.
Long have we looked at Heroes
with empty eyes,
Hungry to be them,
discontent with ourselves
Heroes are more dangerous than villains
If we try to be them
forgetting ourselves
Missing the divine within
don’t hide behind the storybook and scripture
the lure of better
the message is not to be like them
but they like us are.
the song of the hero is to be you.
you.
