Too alarmin' now to talk about
Take your pictures down and shake it out
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary
Don't the best of them bleed it out
While the rest of them peter out?
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary
Kudos, my hero, leavin' all the mess
You know my hero, the one that's on
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary
Take your pictures down and shake it out
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary
Don't the best of them bleed it out
While the rest of them peter out?
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary
Kudos, my hero, leavin' all the mess
You know my hero, the one that's on
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary

Chris I love you and am VERY proud of you.
The story of your son brought me near to tears. That doesn't happen often. I have a son and a daughter who I love very much. 'To the point that I can't grasp how fortunate and honored I am to have them in my life. I hear that in your 'voice'. You have that with your son. And you are amazed by him.
I know the feeling. We are truly blessed.

For me, that person is Steve Irwin. But it could be anyone... parent, police officer... whatever... unbelievable song.
I just naturally interpret the meaning subjectively and personally.
I have many heroes.
"the people in your everday lives that support and protect you"
I'd say that is the perfect meaning. I couldn't have said it as well.
It's great to hear a son who loves his father say so.

kudos, my hero.
B) This is quite possibly their best song.
A) I hope you're right
B) You may be thinking of Everlong. ;;)
It is NOT about Kobain, although i'm sure other songs are.
