Protest the Hero
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Death is callous, strange and sudden
2
A pious, indignant, drooling glutton
3
Whose hands are soft, warm, inviting
4
Whose desperate advances seem useless fighting
5
Whose ragged tooth should rip through flesh
6
Which marinates in rancid breath
7
How quick one turns to a violent death
8
When cowardice remains where courage left
9
No guiding light to lead the way
10
Just rot declining to decay
11
The would-be hangman hangs its head
12
To find its victim not quite dead
13
But rising now from beneath the gallows
14
A driving force cuts through the shadows
15
Strike from the heart, cut to the quick
16
With no remorse it's politic
17
With crippling blows to the body and head
18
Drip by drip until it's finally bled out
19
One moment defines a lifetime
20
No one recalls the crawl or the climb
21
Or the trembling legs that take the first two steps
22
Or the moment the lungs decide to take breath
23
The darkness comes to life
24
Underneath its cloak beat the blood red eyes
25
Whose haunting stare leaves one paralyzed
26
This is the nightmare from which one never awakes
27
Laughing at the feeble whose whole body shakes
28
Who pounce upon the weakness and the past mistakes
29
Whose hands grip the heart and cause the heartbreak
30
So strike from the heart, cut to core
31
Leave only the sinew washed up on the shore
32
Sever the head of the beast with the crown
33
Never back down
34
(Back down)
35
Never back down
36
And as the light breaks through the darkest night
37
It finds the victor dressed in white
38
Rising now from beneath the gallows
39
A driving force cuts through the shadows
