Fallen Hero

(Lyric by rednblue07)
With respect and remembrance for G.G.

In a world devoid of kindness
In a place without a soul
It's a rarity indeed
To find a true heart of gold
And you find it in his words
And you find it in his deeds
And it's there in his eyes
And you follow as he leads
And you watch as he works
He's a master of his art
And you try to take example
But it all falls apart
But he gives you the courage
To try, try again
And you keep pushing on
ANd you'll get it right in the end

But what will fill the void
When he's given all he can?

CHORUS
You're my fallen hero
I walked so long in your shadow
And studied your footprints
Until the rain would wash them away
Now what has become
Of the man who was invincible
You've faded into your own shadow now
A fallen hero

You've always held the magic
You're an artist and a muse
And an inspiration to everyone
Who wanted to wear your shoes
But now the canvas is faded
And the muse is silent now
And the hero inside
Has taken his final bow
And now what is left?
I will never be you
I will never get it right
And I just can't continue
You fell from on high
And you left us behind
And the things we still seek
Are impossible now to find

So who will fill the void?
Or must I walk on alone?

CHORUS
