Prisoner to the noise inside your head

You try to be your own god

Your words don't carry meaning

You subvert your inner fears

Hiding things that illustrate you're weak

Through methods so unsound

Judging all the sinners you can see

Exempt from these same rules

[Chorus]

I will be a hero tonight

Tomorrow an enemy

I look into the mirror

Don't know who's looking back at me

I look into the mirror

Don't know who's looking back at me

You are the substance you ingest

And you are your own despair

You are the spark to neverwhere

No care for who you take

Your flag is in the distance

Because you lost your fight

You are the darkness you resent

It overtook you anyway

[Chorus 2]

I will be a hero tonight

Tomorrow an enemy

I look into the mirror

Don't know who's looking back at me

Why don't you look in the mirror?

Things you don't believe

And things you condemn

Become what you denied

The danger is found within

[Chorus 3]

I will be a hero tonight

Tomorrow an enemy

I look into the mirror

Don't know who's looking back at me

I will be a hero tonight

Tomorrow an enemy

I will be a god tonight

Don't know where it will lead
