In this crazy life I have known
So much love, so much light, so much sorrow
In your eyes, I’m brand new, I am pure
I’m your hero, I’m your hero, I’m your hero
I’m reborn
I closed the door on my days, upside down
I found the cure to my haze and I climbed out
This beautiful girl, only hope, never doubt
I’ll make you my world ’cause for long, I was screaming out
In this crazy life I have known
So much love, so much light, so much sorrow
In your eyes, I’m brand new, I am pure
I’m your hero, I’m your hero, I’m your hero
I’m reborn
I’m still not safe on these trails, but I’m on track
I still have thoughts, troubled past tryin’ to drag me back
Yeah, beautiful sirens on the rocks, tryin’ to make me crash
But I’ve got a feeling, if you stay, I can’t be that bad
In this crazy life I have known
So much love, so much light, so much sorrow
In your eyes, I’m brand new, I am pure
I’m your hero, I’m your hero, I’m your hero
I’m reborn
In this crazy life I have known
So much love, so much light, so much sorrow
In your eyes, I’m brand new, I am pure
I’m your hero, I’m your hero, I’m your hero
I’m reborn
I’m reborn
I’m reborn
