Hero

Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)



After run I got so tired
And you pulled me down
When I learnt you're a lier
And I live somehow

I was running far away
To avoid my falling tears
Can't believe that you claimed
I'd be happier to be his

You said that you only wanted
For me to be free from sorrow
Now I'm really disappointed
That you lied about tomorrow

That we won't hold our hands
Nor we'll share again one pillow
You made it clear and escaped
Don't claim you were born a hero
