Edguy – We Don't Need A Hero Lyrics 4 years ago
@[Ashenghoul:36967] Hi,for me it’s more like:


When you wake up in the fire
And you harbour lies in ruins
You wonder why the giant has been shot
Fired off down from sky

Inner feelings, giant is meant to be storyteller’s(singer) ego,
it’s like asking: "Why everything was so shinny and good and now it all lies in ruins ? I don’t understand why.

You plead for explanation
Is it accident or rule
And where is you childhood hero
To drive all the demons away

Again figuring why now I’m in personal crisis (in fall)

What if the light
Shines in darkness my friend
And darkness just can't comprehend
So blaze the trail on you own
Go it alone

It’s like inner hope or maybe someone who had to learn by mistakes too and tries to motivate one that is in crisis,
that everything will be again good someday. But I have to do something for it, I have to take responsibility for my actions and it’s only up to me noneone else can solve my problem -"go it alone"

Indignity is the leader
To escort us to the fen
Where they say the light is endemic
If only I could comprehend

Dezinformations, ignorance of facts, overwhelming by our egos and emotions which are used as a weapon by politics and leaders with their own selfish interests.
.
Now you're old enough to face it
Rabble's stones give pain
Hit you as they watch you tracks
Apart from the way that they understand

Again ignorance and illusion defends itself, it’s way of less effort.
When you are not a part of crowd, the crowd wants to pull you back. You found your own identity. They don’t understand.

Light = Truth and Love
Darkness =living in Illusion, Ignorance, slave of own emotions

We are falling - falling to rise
Pain is the guide out of the wastelands
We don't need a hero
We are falling - falling to rise
No charlatan to show you the light
We don't need a hero.

Well, pain is the best teacher, isn’t it? Falling is normal way of learning things. As child we had to fall many times then we walked.
And again we don’t need anyone else to tell us what is the truth(Light), we have to live through that and experience it all by ourselves.
To trust anyone else that he figure out our problems is giving up on our freedom and responsibility. Politicians, church ... etc. can use us like a puppet then.

So, yes it is criticism of society and also a desing of solution how to learn be true and be yourself.

To summarize: "We don’t need a hero." They can be false
"Heroes we have to become ourselfes" :)

If Tobi is by MTBI surely ENFP I can relate to that point of view.
Where inner rules and values are more true that outter ones.

I will be glad for some feedback. :)
