There are some days that are bad right from the start
There are some words that seem to leave a mark
There are times you'd rather an arrow through the heart
Than to keep walking this tightrope in the dark 

I saw you stumble, I saw you fall
And I saw you rise up above it all

You don't know dear what the day may bring
With all of us here we must stand and sing
You're my hero, the way you got through it all
You don't dear what the day may bring

You're my Hero, you're my hero

Only we know you faced the great divide 
Only you know what it took to make it to the other side
You stared down your monster when every muscle wanted to hide
And i wish you hadn't had to, but now you're stronger inside

I saw you stumble, I saw you fall
And I saw you rise up above it all

You don't know dear what the day may bring
With all of us here we must stand and sing
You're my hero, the way you got through it all
You don't know dear what the day may bring
With all of us here we must stand and sing 

You're my hero, you're my hero 

You light up my life 
Cause you were just waiting for the day to arrive 
Just a bird in a cage waiting for sunlight
You were just waiting, but now its time
Cause you're alive, you're alive 

You don't know dear what the day may bring
With all of us here you must stand and sing 
You're my hero

Cause you're my hero, Cause you're my hero 
Cause you're my hero, You're my hero
