No one sits with him, he doesn't fit in But we feel like we do when we make fun of him Cause you want to belong, do you go along? Cause his pain is the price paid for you to belong It's not like you hate him or want him to die But maybe he goes home and thinks suicide Or he comes back to school with a gun at his side And a kindness from you might have saved his life Heroes are made when you make a choice
Chorus You could be a hero Heroes do what's right You could be a hero You might save a life You could be a hero You could join the fight For what's right, for what's right, for what's right
No one talks to her, she feels so alone She's in too much pain to survive on her own The hurt she can't handle overflows to a knife She writes on her arm wants to give up her life Each day she goes on is a day that she's brave Fighting the lie that giving up is the way Each moment of courage her own life she saves When she throws the pills out a hero is made Heroes are made when you make a choice
Chorus
No one talks to him about how he lives He thinks that the choices he makes are just his Doesn't know he's the leader with the way he behaves And others will follow the choices he's made He lives on the edge, he's old enough to decide His brother who wants to be him is just nine He can do what he wants, because it's his right But choices he makes change a nine-year-old's life Heroes are made when you make a choice
