Save the Hero Lyrics

I lay alone awake at night
Sorrow fills my eyes
But I'm not strong enough to cry
Despite of my disguise
I'm left with no shoulder
But everybody wants to lean on me
I guess I'm their soldier
But who's gonna be mine?

[CHORUS]
Who's there to save the hero, oh-oh
When she's left all alone
And she's crying out for help
Who's there to save the hero, oh-oh
Who's there to save the girl
After she saves the world
After she saves the world

I bottle all my hurt inside
I guess I'm living a lie
Inside my mind each day I die
What can bring me back to life?
A simple word, a gesture
Someone to say you're beautiful
Come find this buried treasure
Rainbows lead to a pot of gold

[CHORUS]

After she saves the world
After she saves the world

I've given too much of myself and now's it's drivin' me crazy
I'm crying out for help
Sometimes I wish someone would just come here and save me
Save me from myself

[CHORUS]

After she saves the world
After she saves the world
After she saves the world...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is actually beautiful :') I guess it's basically about a girl who is always there for everyone but no one is ever there for her, until one day it just becomes too much. All it would take to make her feel loved again would be 'someome to say you're beautiful' (What can bring me back to life? A simple word, a gesture Someone to say you're beautiful Come find this buried treasure Rainbows lead to a pot of gold)

Love this song :) x

I like this song 'cause it's about woman's courage, strength... She can endure a lot things, like a man, but she's not so strong inside her mind. And she aks somebody to help her, because she's tired to stand alone.
