Loud And Louder
A hero may not be a hero because they want to. This song expresses the feelings of someone who's been designated as a savior or the leader of a rebellion, but in fact was not the one responsible for starting it in the first place. The title is a double-edged sword; in the eyes of those who they've saved in the process, they are role models and aspirations, but to the person themselves, the title has also made them a scapegoat, causing them to lose everything for the sake of everyone else. Though they may have accepted their fate in the end, the question still remains: is becoming a hero always a good thing? Is it okay to sacrifice one person to save countless others, even if they'll be hurt much more than how the others had been hurting prior to their sacrifice combined?

You brought the crowd
You made them shout
Then you made me their hero
You push my limits
Believing this is what I want
I was never a leader
And no one knew my name
You were always the bravest
But now I know why you're that way
You're just as much of a coward
As the rest of us
But you're good at hiding
And you're good at making us believe
That change is coming
All that's left
Is for someone to take the blame
I'll scream loud, loud and louder
If anyone can hear me
They don't have to save me
I just want them to know the truth
I'm already falling
Through the rabbit hole
That someone else have made
This day I'm a hero
Tomorrow I'll be a legend
But is it worth remembering
When I've done nothing at all
Your words ignited the flame
It's warm and scarlet red around me
But I'm not in that light
Others have reached out towards it
While I kept my hands tucked in
It's cold where I was
But I was okay
I never wanted anything else
I'll scream loud, loud and louder
If anyone can hear me
They don't have to save me
I just want them to know the truth
I'm already falling
Through the rabbit hole
That someone else have made
This day I'm a hero
Tomorrow I'll be a legend
But did I leave for a change
Or will everything stay the same
If I scream right now
Would anyone above be listening
If I scream loud and clear
Would someone jump in and fall with me
I'll scream loud, loud and louder
If anyone can hear me
They don't have to save me
I just want them to know the truth
I'm already falling
Through the rabbit hole
That someone else have made
This day I'm a hero
Tomorrow I'll be a legend
I'll leave something
For you to remember me by
If you still need me
Come, but don't take me back
It's warmer around me
I'm okay now
I don't need anything else
