Nobody's Hero        By:  Rush
		I knew he was different in his sexuality I went to his parties as a straight minority It never seemed a threat to my masculinity He only introduced me to a wider reality. As the years went by We drifted apart When I heard that he was gone I felt a shadow cross my heart. But he's nobody's hero Saves a drowning child Cures a wasting disease Hero, lands a crippled airplane Solves great mysteries. Hero, not the handsome actor Who plays the heroes role Hero, not the glamor girl Who'd love to sell her soul. If anybody's buying nobody's her. I didn't know the girl But I knew her family All their lives were shattered In a nightmare of brutality. They try to carry on Try to bear the agony Try to hold some faith In the goodness of humanity. As the years went by We drifted apart When I heard that she was gone I felt a shadow cross my heart. But she's nobody's hero Is the voice of reason Against the howling mob. Hero, Is the pride of purpose In the unrewarding job. Hero, not the champion player Who plays the perfect game Hero, not the glamor boy Who loves to sell his name Everybody's buying Nobody's hero. As the years went by We drifted apart When I heard that you were gone I felt a shadow cross my heart. But he's nobody's hero Saves a drowning child Cures a wasting disease Hero, lands a crippled airplane Solves great mysteries. Hero, not the handsome actor Who plays a hero's role Hero, not the glamor girl Who'd love to sell her soul If anybody's buying Nobody's hero Hero
