Lyrics: Pat Benatar. Tropico. Temporary Heroes.

I've seen all the downfalls
Temporary heroes, whoa
Misguided direction
Longing for perfection, whoa

Love and pain, only for the foolish
Once again, try to hide what's there inside
I'm the same, temporary hero
Who's to blame

Rituals and movements
Much too soon improvements
(Hide many scars)
Others and ours

Too late to discover
This untainted love is
(Destined to be)
A sad memory

Love and pain, only for the foolish
Once again try to hide what's there inside
I'm the same, temporary hero
Who's to blame

Love and pain, only for the foolish
Once again try to hide what's there inside
I'm the same, temporary hero
Who's to blame

Though the wounds are healing
Don't tell me the feeling's the same

Love and pain, only for the foolish
Once again, try to hide what's there inside
I'm the same, temporary hero
Who's to blame

Love and pain, only for the foolish
Once again, try to hide what's there inside
I'm the same, temporary hero
Who's to blame

Love and pain, only for the foolish
Once again, try to hide what's there inside
I'm the same, temporary hero
Who's to blame

Love and pain, only for the foolish
