[Intro]
Tell me, do I need to be my own hero?
[Verse 1]
Would you lay your Amlife down?
Would you give an arm or a leg?
Are we gonna Ffight now?
'Cause baby, it's the world we’re against
Is it our Dmtime now, right now
Or is it just me in the Amend?
Is our future bright now?
Tell me, is the dark seeping in?
Are we Falright now?
Are we barely breathing again?
Is it our Dmtime now, right now
Or is it just me in the Amend?
[Chorus]
Will you come Amrunning when I scream your name?
The wolves are out Fhunting and they're coming for me
Tell me, Dmdo I need to be my own Amhero? (Be my own hero)
Will you come running? I need to know
An army of Ftwo, or am I all alone?
Tell me, Dmdo I need to be my own Amhero? (Be my own hero)
[Verse 2]
I don’t know how I'm gonna do it
But I'm gonna do it with or without Fyou
DmI don't know how I'm gonna do it
But I'm gonna do it if it's the last thing I AmdoAm  
Do I gotta save my own life, save my own life
For my whole life? FWhoa
And Dmdo I gotta find my own light, find my own light
For my whole life? AmWhoa
[Chorus]
Will you come running when I scream your name?
The wolves are out Fhunting and they're coming for me
Tell me, Dmdo I need to be my own Amhero? (Be my own hero)
Will you come running? I need to know
An army of Ftwo, or am I all alone?
Tell me, Dmdo I need to be my own Amhero? (Be my own hero)
[Post-Chorus]
AmWhoa, Fwhoa
DmWhoa, Amwhoa
[Bridge]
Would you lay your Amlife down?
Would you give an arm or a leg?

'Cause baby, it's the world we’re against
Is it our Dmtime now, right now
Or is it just me in the Amend? Yeah

Will you come running when I scream your name?

Do I need to be my own, be my own)

Tell me, do I need to be my own hero?

[Verse 1]

Would you lay your life down?

Would you give an arm or a leg?

Are we gonna fight now?

'Cause baby, it's the world we’re against

Is it our time now, right now

Or is it just me in the end?

Is our future bright now?

Tell me, is the dark seeping in?

Are we alright now?

Are we barely breathing again?

Is it our time now, right now

Or is it just me in the end?

Will you come running when I scream your name?

The wolves are out hunting and they're coming for me

Tell me, do I need to be my own hero? (Be my own hero)

[Verse 2]

I don’t know how I'm gonna do it

But I'm gonna do it with or without you

I don't know how I'm gonna do it

Am Am

But I'm gonna do it if it's the last thing I do

Do I gotta save my own life, save my own life

For my whole life? Whoa

And do I gotta find my own light, find my own light

For my whole life? Whoa

[Chorus]

Will you come running when I scream your name?

The wolves are out hunting and they're coming for me
