Lyrics

The storm it keeps me up tonight
The thunder thrashes any peace
A clouded mind I'm thinking through
Sometimes it's hard to see the truth
The hero always finds a way
To save the world and get the girl
But I'm a man who's lost this fight
There's no hero here tonight

So why can't I be stronger for you
I try to live my life with virtue
It's midnight in this lonely city
I want your love and not your pity please

I lay my head down on the bed
And wonder how it came to this
There's not a dream I haven't lost
There's no desire without a cost
And all my plans to make a change
Are only rumors in the wind
But I'm afraid that what is real
Will turn my heart to solid steel

So why can't I be stronger for you
I try to live my life with virtue
It's midnight in this lonely city
I want your love and not your pity please
