The song's about screwing up and getting it over with.
Lyrics
Second-rate Hero
Verse 1:
A person should be more than kind to be a role model to you.
What have we all done, what has the world come to?
We all live a lie
And we all say we try
I don't claim I try too
Because then I'd be like you.
Chorus
I'll take it to heart, no matter what you say
Just stab me now, so I can go on my way
I don't know why you say the words you know
And have realized will hurt me the most
Verse 2:
I'm nothing more than decent and I don't try my hardest
I won't try to please you, I'm apathetic and careless.
I don't like a lot of people
And I don’t honestly believe
That at heart everyone is good,
But I guess that's just me.
Bridge:
If you look someone in the eyes
And tell them deceitful lies
You can't be an angel on the inside.
Chorus
