Footsteps
Echoes of a life soon to be torn away
The reality will be lost
A bullet shall shatter a life
Into a thousand pieces
The pieces may be picked up
The life may be rebuilt
The form of a hero will evade death
To go on for a greater cause
Life
Once again
The hero will be betrayed
Once again
Lives will be lost
Once again
Danger will ensue
Once again
Once again
Once again
His name will be spoken with respect
On the lips and hearts of everyone
He is a legend
A rider on the stallion of power
His name is known to all
Feared by many
And loved by little
His name is Alex Rider
And he is the hero of heroes
