Unexpected Hero

I hear you wake up in the morning
Your eyes are swollen, you've been crying
I don't know what you've been fighting
But you are unstoppable

You may not realize the strength you hold
Courage is more valuable than gold
Having the nerve to be in control
Of your own little world

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's your unexpected hero
Flew near the sun, and lived to tell the tale
Sometimes you must release your alter ego
The hero always prevails

You can feel it building up inside
Conquer your fear, you don't need to hide
The more you let go, the higher you rise
To the call

With a lion's heart, and bird's-eye-view
At the ready, and right on cue
You will emerge out of the blue
To save the day

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's your unexpected hero
Flew near the sun, and lived to tell the tale
Sometimes you must release your alter ego
The hero always prevails

Determination can go a long way when stirred
A combination of bravado and one's self assured
Up and away just like the cliches say
Okay, okay
Oh hey

It's a bird, it's a plane
It's your unexpected hero
Flew near the sun, and lived to tell the tale
Sometimes you must release your alter ego
The hero always prevails

It's your unexpected hero
You lived to tell the tale
Release your alter ego
The hero always prevails
