dear heroes - gottlieb lyrics

with all due respect
to deified heroes living in my head
messiah message, pasted on a jacket
printed on cardboard and beaten to death
i gotta ask

is there a single moment where the words you’ve spoken
transcend the bullsh*t of another new fad?
doomed to the black of radical ideas
that died the moment they’re had?

you succeeded in a system that favors selfishness
and i find it real convenient that you ended up with this
glamour, decadence an army of patrons
while not a thing you spoke about has moved a f*cking inch

let me ask sir mccartney, cuz i can’t ask lennon
if love is all we need, why can’t it pay the rent
imagine no possessions from a mansion on the beach
so easy for a billionaire to tell me let it be

taking center*stage, i’m a rebel paradox
cuz if i’m a f*cking saint
i wouldn’t be an artist
i’m a salesman, coasting on the tails of renaissance
i’m naive and arrogant
but i’m no anarchist
i’m another rock hero
taking the stage
in uniform and flashy effect
so what does this front of mine really protect?
another rock hero
taking the stage
in uniform, flashy effect
what does this front of mine really protect?

all my kings are dead
all my kings are dead
all my kings are dead
all my kings are dead

i’m pretty f*cking sick of bowing down to hypocrites
with selfish dreams of influence disguised as “altruist”
as superman rapes lois lane and comes out pedophile
i’m growing pretty literal about k!lling my idols

like an underage girl that he’s trying to f*ck
watch ’em sell you out when you’re all used up
so let us bow down to he who’s made it
to a crown of th*rns
altar of sh*t

he’s such a f*cking hero
taking the stage
in uniform
flashy effect
what does that front of his really protect?
you’re such a f*cking hero
saving the day
your uniform
flashy effect
both of us know what you fail to protect

so stay dead

dear heroes, stay dead
