Your Hero 03:41
I hide, in plain sight, there's no way, to fight, All day, and all night, you can't find, the light, You can't breathe, you can't feel, you can't stop, to heal, I'm just, in your head, you bet black, but I'm red, Call your friends, and let them know, even if it's time to go, Anyone can be your hero, You can't, describe, the pain, inside, Not good, enough, despite the love, Call your friends, and let them know, even if it's time to go, Anyone can be your hero...

about

'Your Hero' is a song about the stigma surrounding mental health, particularly in men. Depression, anxiety and suicidal tendencies can manifest in many forms, not all of them recognisable to even the most familiar eye.

The song reaffirms that all-important message that it's okay to not be okay, and while reaching out may seem like an insurmountable task in the darkest of times, anyone can be your hero.

Please be aware that all proceeds from the sales of the single release of Your Hero will be donated directly to mind.org.uk, a mental health charity based in the UK.

Your Hero is taken from my second album 'Armageddon,' which you can also find on my Bandcamp profile.
