lyrics

V1
Some people are born, straight down in a deep hole
They start out life way back in the rear
But they dig down deep, find something to hold onto
Cut a brand new path, push on without fear.

V2
The road gets dark, seems to go on forever
You stumble and fall, in the thick of your mind
But you find new strength, fall in love with the journey
Take an inward plunge, and let your bright light shine.

Chorus
Hero show me the way, hero show me the way
Hero show me the way, hero show me the way
I wanna start today, hero show me the way! …Yeah!

Bridge
There are those who have gone before me
The labyrinth is thoroughly known
All I have to do is follow the thread of the hero
Who has already ventured out there all alone.

V3
I feel that urge rising within me
Bundles of fear lie right along side
But I gotta dig deep, find out what I’m made of,
To be reborn, I surely first must die.

Acapella Chorus
