Hero & Hell - Keaton Simons

I travelled a road,

And came to a crossing,

One way pointed right,

And one way wrong,

Which path to take,

Was a coin for the tossing,

But I couldn’t turn back,

Where I’d come

I ran from my feelings,

Abandoned my love,

I’d no courage left,

No respect,

Mile after mile,

The road wouldn’t end,

Til' I finally caught up,

To myself

When your heart is broken,

Blame is a sad game,

Your smile is a token,

You can’t say her name,

And the pain is so fierce,

In the space between,

Hero and hell,

Between hero and hell

No one was ever,

To touch my soul,

My passion locked up,

Behind walls of steel

How she climbed over,

I’ll never know

Confused by the happiness,

I wanted to kill

The moment of truth,

Looked me dead in the eye,

My capable living,

Exposed,

Can I be with a lover,

And not wanna lie,

Or am I too damaged,

To let her get close

When your heart is broken,

Blame is a sad game,

Your smile is a token,

You can’t say her name,

And the pain burns like fire,

In the space between hero and hell,

Between hero and hell

(Bridge)

Trapped between fear and rage,

I learned at an early age,

Love is the curl of a blinding fist,

A knife that slips in and twists,

When your heart is broken,

And blame is a sad game,

And your smile is a token,

You can’t say her name,

And the pain cuts so deep,

In the space between hero and hell

Between hero and hell

Between hero and hell
