This song is about the journey of being true to yourself. It's a journey because you have to figure out all of those secrets you hide, even from yourself. Being the "hero" simply means you are empowered to overcome anything that is stopping you from moving forward in your life. When you do, you "find the key to your life" and can move forward with your life.

"Sometimes the river flows but nothing breathes A train arrives but never leaves, it's a shame Oh, life like love that's walked out of the door Of being rich or being poor, such a shame"

Doesn't matter who you are - you're stuck. That's a shame.

"But it's then, then that faith arrives To make your feelings alive And that's why, you should keep on aiming high Just seek yourself and you will shine"

When you start to believe in yourself, and have that faith to keep going, you begin the journey of understanding yourself, and when you figure something it, then you will shine brighter as you have less burdon.

"You've got to search for the hero inside yourself Search for the secrets you hide Search for the hero inside yourself Until you find the key to your life"

You're the hero who can work your stuff out. Keep going!

"In this life, long and hard though it may seem Live it as you'd live a dream, aim so high Just keep the flame of truth burning bright The missing treasure you must find Mmm-mmm-mmm"

Follow your dreams, but remember that life isn't easy, so make it work by aiming high to better yourself over time. Keep being true to yourself... that's the treasure you must find.

I think we get the meaning now?
