Real human being

And a real hero

Real human being

And a real hero

Back against the wall and odds

With the strength of a will and a cause

Your pursuits are called outstanding

You're emotionally complex

Against the grain of dystopic claims

On the thoughts

Your actions entertained

And you have proved to be

A real human being

And a real hero

Real human being

And a real hero

Real human being

A pilot on a cold, cold morn'

One-hundred fifty-five people on board

All safe and all rescued

From the slowly sinking ship

Water warmer than his head

So cool in that tight bind

Knew what to do

And you have proved to be

A real human being

And a real hero

Real human being

And a real hero

Real human being

And a real hero

Real human being
