William Mowell - Life Of Honor

I'm a ghost of what I used to be
All there is, is a demon left in me

Saving the world from parasites
Coming home to another empty night

On the road, more than home
Giving my all, but ending up alone


Chorus

I'm the one they call a hero

A normal person, never called a zero

But when I come home all I see

An apartment as empty as me


Another crime stopped for a hefty fee
locked up, and soon he'll be set free

Sometimes I wander, why I bother
Set it down and I'll go see my father

The reason why I do what I do
And my vision will never be skewed


Because I'm the one they call a hero

A normal person, never called a zero

But when I come home all I see

A bag of clothes, reminder of what may be\n\nWilliam Mowell
