[Verse 1: Juliette Rielly]
I walk alone with
No wings to carry me home
You don't even know
You don't even know
And I hate the fall
Because it takes you with it
Shoot me down again
You're colder than the snow
I'm used to being on my own
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't own me just because
You made me cry a thousand times
This is me clearing my own dark skies
[Chorus]
You are not your mistakes
You are not your past
You are not the kids in high school
Who said you'd never last
You are not your parents
You are not your goodbyes
So before you give up this fight
I hope you realize
You can be your own hero
[Verse 2: Juliette Reilly]
She's got her head down on the desk
She doesn't see it yet
But one day she'll be grown
This is just a stepping stone
He's locked in his bedroom
Thinking pain is all there is
It's all he's ever known
They beat him down so low
[Pre-Chorus 2]
They don't own you just because
They made you cry a thousand times
Just trust me when I say you're going to be fine
[Chorus]
[Bridge x3]
Strong pain, yet strong hearts
This is where your life starts
We are clean slates and zeroes
Becoming our own heroes
[Chorus 2]
We are not our mistakes
We are not our past
We are not the kids in high school
We used to be
We used to be
We are fierce and mighty
We are saying goodbye
To the people who thought
We'd never realize
We can be our own heroes
[Outro]
I walk alone while my own
Strength carries me home
You don't even know
I am my own hero
