I was never a hero

[Verse 1]
He walked through the ruins where his home used to be,
Kept telling himself, “It’s a dream, just a dream.”
With a pack on his back and the grief in his chest,
He’s not searching for freedom — he just wants to rest.

He abandoned his home, now he’s crossing the seas,
Though no one is waiting, he falls to his knees.
With a tear on his cheek, and a fire inside,
He’s not a hero — he just wants to survive.

[Chorus]
I’m not a hero, I’m only running,
From the blasts in the night that tore through the silence.
I’ve lost so much, but I’m not a void —
A new life is calling, I’m chasing its voice.

The unknown is tempting, but shadows still show,
Some things you can’t bury along with the war.

Along with the war!

Along with the war!

[Verse 2]
He walks through the streets where no voices remain,
And he can’t understand why it all feels the same.
Through the crowd of strangers who move without sound,
He looked in their eyes — but no soul was found.

He misses the home that is burning in flames,
He dreams of his family, all calling his name.
He dreams of his friends who are gone evermore...
Now he walks on alone — but he’ll carry their soul.

[Chorus]
I’m not a hero, I’m only running,
From the blasts in the night that tore through the silence.
I’ve lost so much, but I’m not a void —
A new life is calling, I’m chasing its voice.

The unknown is tempting, but shadows still show,
Some things you can’t bury along with the war.

Along with the war!

Along with the war!

[Bridge]
He stood on the platform, his ticket in hand,
Saying goodbye to the man that he was.
He never sought vengeance, no hatred inside,
For his soul was already burned out by the fire.

[Final Chorus]
I’m not a hero — I’m just alive,
Through the fear, through the pain, I still fight to survive.
I’ve stumbled, I’ve fallen, but never gave in,
The voice deep within tells me, “Rise up again!”

I’m not a hero! I’m only running!
I’m still alive — and I’ll keep on coming!
A new life is calling, I’m breaking the void —
I’m chasing my dream, I’m chasing my hope!
