All my heroes are vilified All my heroes are left behind So why not me Pushing harder just makes it harder to hold on This train is flying downhill now Letting go is worse than pushing on All my heroes are vilified All my heroes are left behind So why not me An impending failure haunting me again Unattainable goals seem to be the only worthy ones I know I'm breaking myself And all of us in the process Oh, incapable of hindsight My reflection's in the flames All my heroes are vilified All my heroes are left behind So why not me My body burning as I struggle on A charred corpse is success enough for me Proof of a life lived every moment until my death This reflection will not fade away I know I'm breaking myself And all of us in the process Instinct is the antithesis of evolution Comfort is the crutch that holds you down
