Lyrics- Bully Boys

The lyrics below are from the Bully Boys first full length cd and was re recorded on their latest release- Hard Times Hard Measures. The song is titled Nobody`s Hero. To me this song represents the disgust at the complacency of so many and their refusal to contribute to the betterment of our people. For they are the flowers which refuse to bloom, they are Nobody`s Hero.

Nobodys Hero
The reluctant hero seeking to play the doomed
Like a flower that grows in the spring, but still refuses to bloom
Ill fated from conception you strive to make this true
Lost in your false reflections, misery you claim to prove
Banishing yourself from a life that you were born to live
But the ways at which you arrive, always claim you never did
So strongly pessimistic, you always live to fail
Never willing to make a stand, leaving others to no avail

Chorus
Misery loves company, You`re Nobody`s Hero
You can`t get a grip on destiny, You`re Nobody`s Hero
Your course has no end in sight, You`re Nobody`s Hero
Now broken down beaten and cold, You`re Nobody`s Hero

On the steps of life you stumble, leave impressions on the walls
Perceptions of reality you fumble as you ready for another fall
Please miss me with your complaints, for I`ve passed that wall
And took control of the reigns where so many seem to fall
The reluctant hero seeking to play the doomed
Like a flower that grows in the springtime, but still refuses to bloom
Ill fated from conception you strive to make this true
Lost in your false reflections, misery you claim to prove

Chorus
Misery loves company, You`re Nobody`s Hero
You can`t get a grip on destiny, You`re Nobody`s Hero
Your course has no end in sight, You`re Nobody`s Hero
Now broken down beaten and cold, You`re Nobody`s Hero
