The Fly
sun setting on the ocean's water
sons are soldiers and kids for slaughter
looking back I'll always wander
what its like to be good
what its like to be good
In the war we all were fighting
Some were chanting, some were writing
When they called my number I fled
whats it like to be good
whats it like to be good
The house was burning from cigarettes in bed
Babies crying and I heard what you said
Rescue them before you leave
Do what's good
Do what's good
Every man can't be a hero
Every woman can't be a saviour
Every time can't be the best
And every day I'll try like the rest
But I'm never a hero
Sun burns hot in the desert sands
You crossed the border to my open hands
They beat on my door and asked if you were here
I'm never a hero
I'm never a hero
I'm never a hero
sons are soldiers and kids for slaughter
looking back I'll always wander
what its like to be good
what its like to be good
In the war we all were fighting
Some were chanting, some were writing
When they called my number I fled
whats it like to be good
whats it like to be good
The house was burning from cigarettes in bed
Babies crying and I heard what you said
Rescue them before you leave
Do what's good
Do what's good
Every man can't be a hero
Every woman can't be a saviour
Every time can't be the best
And every day I'll try like the rest
But I'm never a hero
Sun burns hot in the desert sands
You crossed the border to my open hands
They beat on my door and asked if you were here
I'm never a hero
I'm never a hero
I'm never a hero
