We were told how the story should go 
 Strangers in time fighting ancient foes 
 And that only the way we perceive it 
 Has changed, it still remains 
 Somehow it's always right against wrong 
 Always the chance of temptation 
 But it's never as simple as black or white 
 Day or night 
    Ever searching for secrets of life 
 Missing the moments of being alive 
 But most important things can't be told 
 They're in your soul 
 Put away all your worry and pain 
 Destiny doesn't change things 
 When you find out what you really need 
 How will you know? 
 How will I know?   
 Well we all need a hero 
 Of mythical size 
 To explain what we can't understand 
 And we all need a hero 
 To sacrifice his soul 
 Where's the hero 
 With a thousand eyes 
 With another foolproof plan 
 You only can see through 
 The strange disguise 
 Any maybe find yourself 
 Deep inside this living hell 
 That knows you oh so well, knows you so well   
 Now we won't need a hero 
 With a thousand eyes 
 To explain what we can't understand 
 We won't need a hero 
 To sacrifice his soul 
 Who's the hero 
 With a thousand eyes 
 With another useless plan 
 Now we see through 
 The strange disguise 
 So you can find yourself 
 Deep inside this living hell 
 That knows you oh so well 
 Knows you so well.
