The Fall of a Hero

Espero que gostem da música

Letra:

Verse 1:

I stood against the darkness, shield held high
Promised I would save them, swore I'd never die
Trained a thousand days and nights to face this very hour
They crowned me as their champion, said I had the power
But the enemy was stronger, faster, knew my every move
Cut through my defenses like I had nothing left to prove
Now I'm on my knees here, blood upon the stone
Realizing for the first time that I'm standing here alone

Pre-Chorus:

I gave everything I had
Every drop of strength, every breath, every prayer
But sometimes courage isn't enough
When you're drowning in despair
The weight of all their hope crushing down on me
I'm just a man, not the hero they wanted me to be

Chorus:

This is how a hero falls
When the mighty hit the ground
No triumphant final stand
No victory, no crown
Just the silence, just the sound
Of a promise breaking, hope fading away
I couldn't save them
Not today
Not tomorrow, not ever again
This is how a hero falls
This is where it ends

Verse 2:

I see the faces watching, disbelief in every eye
The children who believed in me, now watching their dreams die
The one they pinned their future on, now just learning how to fall
While the enemy stands laughing at the hero who gave all
My armor's cracked and bleeding, my sword lies in the dust
My hands are shaking, vision fading, everything I've lost
All those who depended on me, who believed I'd win the day
I've betrayed their trust, their faith, and now there's nothing left to say

Pre-Chorus:

I wanted to be legendary
To be the one who never let them down
But legends die like everyone
Beneath this blood-red crown
I screamed into the heavens but no answer ever came
Now I'm just another failure, just another name

Chorus:

This is how a hero falls
When the mighty hit the ground
No triumphant final stand
No victory, no crown
Just the silence, just the sound
Of a promise breaking, hope fading away
I couldn't save them
Not today
Not tomorrow, not ever again
This is how a hero falls
This is where it ends

Verse 3:

I remember all the battles that I fought before this day
Every scar upon my body, every price I had to pay
Thought that suffering would make me strong enough to bear this weight
But I was wrong, I was foolish, and I realized it too late
They'll write songs about this moment, about the hero's last defeat
About the day the darkness won and hope accepted its retreat
I'll be the cautionary tale they tell to warn the young and brave
That sometimes trying isn't enough, some things you just can't save

Bridge:

But maybe... maybe someone stronger will rise where I have failed
Maybe my defeat becomes the story they'll tell
To light a fire brighter than I ever burned before
My falling might be the beginning of their war
If my broken body lying here can teach them what to do
How to be better, fight harder, see this through
Then maybe this pain, this shame, this crushing loss
Wasn't meaningless—just another cost

Final Chorus:

This is how a hero falls
But maybe not how it ends
Sometimes losing one battle
Means a greater fight begins
From my ashes, from my shame, from this pain
Let someone rise
With everything to gain
Let them learn from my mistakes
Let them fight where I failed
Let my story be the wind
That fills their sails
This is how a hero falls
But not how hope dies
Not how the story ends
Just how a new one begins to rise

Outro:

I'm sorry... I tried my best
I'm sorry... I couldn't pass this test
But maybe that's enough
Maybe failure is a gift
When it teaches someone else
How to make that lift
I'm falling now... into the dark
But somewhere in the distance
I can see a spark
Goodbye... my friends
This isn't the end
Just a hero falling
So another can ascend
