Lyrics/Flashback
POV/Something Important
New Place
( ) = Rachel
No Signs = Richard
[ ] = Both Rachel and Richard
Richards POV Concert Stage Somewhere.
We were behind the stage getting ready. This was our 20th concert. It was getting easier but we were still nervous. Our band is called the Titans. Rachel, my girlfriend, plays guitar and sings. I play bass and am the lead singer. Victor, my best friend, plays the drums. And Roy plays an extra as guitar or bass, when needed. Or as a rapper. We all took our places, since our opening act finished. The curtains rolled up and we were greeted by thousands of screaming fans. The music started to our big hit called Hero. I began to sing.
I'm just a step away
I'm just a breath away
Losin' my faith today
(Fallin of the edge today)
I smiled when Rachel sang with me. This was our favorite song. We wrote this song together, you know. We both used to want to be heroes. Now we were each others. We used to pretend all hope was lost. Then we found it again, and save the world. It still takes my breathe away. Her courage I mean, whether she or I knew it or not.
I am just a man
Not a superhuman
(I'm not superhuman)
Someone save me from the hate
I was just a man, but I was Rachel's. I did a backfilp and saw Rachel smile at me. Vic shook his head at my moves. I laughed slightly, but not loud enough for the mike to pick up on. I continued with Rachel watching me a little more.
It's just another war
Just another family torn
(Falling from my faith today)
Just another step from the edge
Just another day in the world we live
As This verse was emotional on both of us and this is why.
Flashback Richards POV
Both of our dads worked in the army. We both constantly prayed they'd return safely form Iraq. It was another war with America. And our dads were both called in to fight immediately. Our moms were torn. We both found comfort in each other. I wouldn't let her out of my sight, because then someone stupid would go and pick on her. She wouldn't leave me alone, cause she knew I'd mope. Our faith fell one day when our moms got a MIA card from the government. Rachel went hystarical and I could barely get through to her. She cried her eyes out to me.
End of Flashback
Richards POV still
I need a hero
To save me now
I need a hero
(Save me now)
Rachel never needed a hero though. She could always take care of herself. She was a hero to little kids though. Her courage, intelligence, and beauty, well who wouldn't look up to her. I myself even admire her. Sometimes. Then again we both admire each other equally.
Need a hero to save my life
A hero will save me
(Just in time)
We kept singing along with the pace of the song. Neither of us out of breath or even close.
I've gotta fight today
To live another day
Speakin' my mind today
(My voice will be heard today)
Flashback
We fought everyday with other kids and ourselves sometimes. But in the end we'd be laughing. We grew up in a town where you had to fight to survive. Raven punched me in the shoulder for defending her.
"Hey I was just being protective." I exclaimed to my best friend.
"I don't need protecting. I can take care of myself!" She shouted back. She would go home and read, sing, or practice martial arts.
"I know but I can still defend you if I want to."
"Fine, but don't do it all the time."
"No promises."
End of Flashback
I've gotta make a stand
But I am just a man
(I'm not superhuman)
My voice will be heard today
We used to voice our opinions in class on stories, classwork, homework, or school hours. But I'm sure everyone saw the good in our views of everything and everyone. And we would tell people to stand up for themselves. We learned that even if we were one person, that we could make a huge difference in the world.
It's just another war
Just another family torn
(My voice will be heard today)
Its just another kill
I shook my head from my thoughts and did a double back flip. I watched Rachel give her guitar to some random player and dance over to me. I smiled and we started a dance war between us. Victor laughed at our childish antics. I watched Rachel do a triple back flip and end in a split. Ouch, but the crowd loved it and screamed some more.
The countdown begins to destroy ourselves
I need a hero to save me now
I need a hero
(Save me now)
Me and Rae were starting a dance war with the music now and we started pulling people onto the stage. She brought some random dude so I grabbed some random girl. I saw her glare at me then started to dance with the dude. I twirled the girl and led her back to where I found her. I let her sit and saw Rachel do the same to her boy toy. I smiled at her and started twirling her around.
I need a hero to save my life
A hero will save me
(Just in time)
I need a hero to save my life
As I pulled her into a hug, I heard her whisper 'your my hero' in my ear. I smiled and quickly kissed her cheek. I heard the crowd aww at the Through out this we kept singing and dancing. Though our breathes were getting a little heavier.
I need a hero
Just in time
Save me just in time
Save me just in time
I needed a hero once and Rachel became that hero. She saved me from a test! I know very funny. But she did she helped me study til I could say the answers without a thought. And we bothe ended up getting the best grades out of the class. I smiled at her again.
[Who's gonna fight for whats right]
[Who's gonna help us survive]
We're in the fight of our lives
(And we're not ready to die)
As we sang in unison as we danced in sync. She was in my arms again so I picked her up and spun her around. Her smile grew. I saw our friend and manager Roy shake his head at us. I rolled my eyes slightly at him.
[Who's gonna fight for the weak]
[Who's gonna make 'em believe]
I've got a hero
(I've got a hero)
We got to fight for our independence from the producers right? Right now we are making the crowd believe they could be famous too. I think some of them could. They just had to fight. Maybe some of them are superheroes in disguise. They just had to fight for the weak.
Livin' in me
[I'm gonna fight for what's right]
[Today I'm speaking my mind]
And if it kills me tonight
Living in me was a hero that only would come out for Rachel. I had to fight for whats right. Like how I had to fight to date Rachel. I would always speak my mind to her. And even if it would kill me I would take that chance.
(I will be ready to die)
A hero's not afraid to give his life
[A hero's gonna save me just in time]
I need a hero
I would die for Rachel if she was ever in danger. I'm not afraid to give my life for her. I would save her from the cruel world and anything that tried to hurt her. Everyone that knows me knows I would die for her, even Rachel herself knows. I would always be her hero, and save in time.
To save me now
I need a hero
(Save me now)
I need a hero
To save my life
A hero will save me
(Just in time)
My breathing is getting heavier as I keep dancing with Rachel. We don't miss a beat in our singing or dancing, at all.
I need a hero
Who's gonna fight for what's right
Who's gonna help us survive
I need a hero
Who's gonna fight for the weak
Who's gonna make 'em believe
I love this verse because it says all the things I'd do for her. My one true love. Rachel.
I need a hero
I need a hero
[A hero's gonna save me]
[Just in time]
We finished the song and smiled to the crowd. We banged the air and got ready for the next song. Yeah we are heroes. Just each others.
