"I'm Not Your Hero" Lyrics:
Standing where I am now, standing up at all
I was used to feeling like I was never gonna see myself at the finish line
Hanging on to parts of me, hanging on at all
I was used to seeing no future in my sight line
Sometimes it feels like they wanna remind me
Send all those villains after me
I'm not their hero
But that doesn't mean that I wasn't brave
I never walked the party line
Doesn't mean that I was never afraid
I'm not your hero
But that doesn't mean we're not one and the same
Feeling like I am now lighting up the hall
I was used to standing in the shadow of a damaged heart
Learning all I know now, losing all I did
I never used to feel like I'd be standing so far ahead
Sometimes it feels what I recovered you lost
Sending your peaceful loss to me
I'm not their hero
But that doesn't mean that I wasn't brave
I never walked the party line
Doesn't mean that I was never afraid
I'm not your hero
But that doesn't mean we're not one and the same
Sometimes it feels like the side that I'm on
Plays the toughest hand, holds the longest stand
Sometimes it feels like I'm all that they've got
It's so hard to know I'm not what they want
Sometimes it feels like the side that I'm on
Plays the toughest hand, holds the longest stand
Sometimes it feels like I'm all that they've got
It's so hard to know I'm not what they want
I'm not their hero
But that doesn't mean that I wasn't brave
I never walked the party line
Doesn't mean that I was never afraid
I'm not your hero
But that doesn't mean we're not one and the same
I do my best to walk the finest line
Till I've had all that I can take

I cant believe this album is ten years old now! Still as fabulous as ever!
dont you just love that instrument in the background thats like "oooohweeee"
is not the just but the most.
Yes.
Tegan is the greatest instrument ever.
That's a guitar
Boom. This song is just perfect in so many ways.
can you guys believe they aren't considered mainstream! they are way better than most mainstream singers and have way more songs than most mainstream singers. it's unbelievable
jjm2412 They've outlasted dozens & dozens of 'mainstream' artists who came & went. They've built their band over 15 years & are truly inspiring.
jjm2412 I’m glad they are not .. keeps them special and sacred
Come on, now!!! I first bought their CD, This Business of Art, back in their garage alt rock days in 2,000. Nearly every song was good. I've followed them ever since. I can't be the only one.
This Business of Art is not the first cd...
@@ThePeachJames He didn't say it was. He clearly said it was the first of their CDs he bought...
I love this song. It's a must listen before I go to work. I have a lot of responsibility that rests on my shoulders and this song helps me to power thru those tough days. And after a hard day. It's played a lot!!!
Still love them after Heartthrob was released and I really admire their courage in changing their style of music. Most artists just stick in their comfort zones. Though I miss how their shows used to be and those banters, but still I will support Tegan and Sara for changing my life!
They need to play this on the radio!! It's a must and Tegan and Sara songs can NEVER be "overplayed" They are too perfect!
Heard this on radio while driving. Song is hauntingly beautiful.
This song is the center of my universe
I can't believe that I found this song just now. It's perfect and relatable in so many ways. I love it
i am loving these new girl groups!!! (new to me anyway)
This song is indie pop perfection. One of my favourite songs off one of my all time favourite albums.
They say the word mean so beautiful
Absolutely love this song.
Me too dept of corrections radio station brought me here today 😉
Their voices and harmonies are as good or better than ever... Even the newest album sounds great live and they are still very acoustic and in tune with their audience... Hearthrob got them more noticed in the States, so that's pretty awesome... I wonder where they go from here? I believe this was their last contracted Album for the Warner Label....Hmmm!!
This is definitely one of the best songs they've ever made. 3 mins 55 secs of perfection.
I think it's a testament to their music that I've listened to this one time and it's already stuck in my head.
I am absolutely LOVING their new stuff! I love how they have been so versatile with their music during their career. I love love love them. Seriously. I could cry.
I have listened to this atleast 10 times in a row already atleast, Sara Quin you really outdid yourself..
Words can't even express how much I love Tegan and Sara.
i love thjis whole album
Yep, it's one of those albums where you never skip a track
lanene93 ikr?!?!?! Every song on this album had enough to be its own hit. All very catchy tunes every.single.one.
I can't stop playing this song!
I heard this song for the first time about 2 weeks ago when I flew to Germany with Air Canada and immediately fell in love with it
Love this song!! It can apply to so many people, in so many different life situations... totally did for me....
Help! I listened to this with LaFerry subtext and now I'm crying!!!
+Haley W Thank you very much -_- :'(
Ughh they need to be main stream!! they're music is too good!
remarkable lyrics
I remember this song came out on my birthday, I was having the worst day but then I listened to their song and bang! Love at first sight! ♥
My favorite song.
I havent heard this in 7 years! Great song.
One of this songs that actually gives you energy for a whole day :D
Grade A Canadian music! Could hear them sing all day.
Seriously! its not called different, its called 'Growth'. All artists do it and its an amazing thing. My favorite thing about Tegan and Sara is that they continually grow and innovate, but still sound distinctly themselves. :)
Tegan and Sara know what they're doing. :-] I'll always love 'em.
Bottom line....this is a really, really great song!!
THIS IS PURE GOLDDD
Holy crap. Love how poppy this new album is.
This is one of the greats that will always be around
Completely right, Tegan and Sara are not my heros... you are my heroines
different is almost ALWAYS good......art is going with what you see/feel. NEVER SELL OUT......stay true to your head. I don't have to like it, but as an artist, don't you feel the need to be a conduit of your vibe/thoughts/inspiration, etc,etc.....? These women are awsome.
im in love with this and with sara. this makes me wanna cry and i dont know what. im so happy right now.
Warner Brothers. You can see it, you can feel it, you can hear it. And it's center of it all in this, what could be great. I respect tegan and sara because i empathize with their need for money.
There's definitely a new pop sensibility to their music, but they seem to do it better than everyone else. There's a level of creativity with their melodies and a realness to their lyrics that makes it so worthwhile. It's almost like taking the best of both worlds. Can't wait to hear the new album. It'll probably be a healthy mix of ear candy and disappointment.
Reinvention is quality, for quality artists, evolution, is everything... I loved the new sound
I think I should go to school right now, but... I'll stay on yt and listen this song about thousand times again.
Their sound changes every album....this is stil amazing.
Congrats on surviving Season 2, Creampuffs!
It's a different feel, but I'm digging it.
Tegan and Sara never disappoint me.
the lyrics are wonderful
Still loving this song. I bet you love it too.
Every musician I ever met knew or had a relative In the Armed Forces. I feel 😪 musicians ptsd in their songs 🎵 and that is therapy true therapy and like you and I and every musician ptsd started at early childhood. Sara and Tegan you are my heroes ❤ too Andrea Lynne Inouye
I really love Sara's voice on this particular song.
Sleeper classic! Made me so emotional about old times in bowling alleys, leaving behind a life that you wish you could still be a part of
Am I the only one that has a hard time watching the audio-only videos? When listening to them, I just want to look at them while doing it, lol. They're so damn beautimus.
Well, the only reason they make audio videos is so people can listen to them in the background of doing something. Your question is like asking "Am I the only one who has a hard time listening to music videos?"
I understand why they make them. Not like I was trying to make some profound statement, just talking about how hot they are.
If you have a Penis , there not interested ...lol
New fan here too. I was knocked out by them at the ACL Festival this past October. It was my first encounter with their music. I remember being so musically wiped out by this particular song, and Tegan's "Oh, Oh, Oh's" were an emotional blast with Sara's voice. I actually got teary-eyed hearing them. This studio version is excellent as well. I'm very much looking forward to the release of the album.
Honestly, I just enjoy their voice, no matter what genre they are in. Sure I love their more acoustic stuff, but this is awesome too. Their voices are just too good.
i love this whole record and song :)
Thank you both for this song!
It was my anthem song when I stood up for my gay apprentice and my boys chose to go to a cult that said I was a bad influence!
Guess what now my Gay apprentice is now my best friend!
And my boys don’t talk to me.
This song was therapeutic for me knowing that I had to stand up for what was right!
Even though I lost fam.😞🙏😽✊🏾
how is it that they are able to captivate my heart for so many years. i really love tegan and sara's continued excellence. each album reveals new layers of who they are
There are a lot of comments saying that they have never heard of this band. Listen to their songs "My number" (awesome) and "All you got" from their "Business of Art" album. In fact the whole album was awesome. It was released in 2000, and back then, I went through 2 CD'S of it (those were the little plastic discs they use to play music on in ancient history). These girls have been the bomb for a LONG time.
now I feel old ;_;
+Tony Tonytony I discovered this group about a month ago, and am loving them.
KEEP LISTENING!! Go deep into their discography, because I honestly can not tell you- there are just a million songs by them that are FCKING INCREDIBLE. Just to throw some out there listen to- "The Con", "Take me Anywhere", "Monday, Monday, Monday", "Love Type thing", "Alligator", "Superstar", "Dark Come Soon", "I hear Noises", "I'll Take the Blame", pretty much every song they have written, including all unreleased tracks, are gorgeous works of art.
love love
so beautiful!
The new album and change in pace couldn't have come at a better time .. I love all previous songs by T&S … but am so effing excited with all of T&S releases in 2012 .. including bodywork collab etc … means I can finally add them to my running playlist!
Love it
i just love them !
love them as always
Love it!!!
I can't wait for this album! I'm uncontrollably excited!!!
Love this song!

They need to come back with an acoustic album !!!

Love dis song. Its on my forever list.
This is definitely one of my favourite songs now. Super duper much
i love it!
Change is apart of growing as a musician, not staying detained as a one-trick duo, which is exactly what they're doing. Many artists these days come out with music, and all the songs sound the same. A true artist evolves, and that's exactly what Tegan and Sara are doing. They make music because it's what they're good at, it's what they love. Don't judge, especially the people who call themselves fans. Change is apart of life! Adapt, or just don't listen. No-one wants to hear whiny complaints ab
I'm so addicted to this song. It's a good addiction. Yeah, I like it......
I love them too much!
this song brings me to tears, its amazing
So beautiful. I wish they hadn't autotuned Sara, but it's still so gorgeous. I cried
i. cannot. wait.
this is so beautiful
Como me encanta esta cancion
fuwaaaaak i miss this song. why is it making me cry!
ahhhhhhh so goooooooood
Great song, great album!!!

Hot Song! Tegan and Sara have a great new sound! Reminds me of 80's music
Absolutely love Tegan *^* She is my HERO
Increíble la música que hacen estas dos, son de lo mejor!
I love this so much. So much
This song makes me feel good all the time. Amazing music!

Literally the anthem to my life. ❤️❤️
