Lyrics

He used to be kind of a happy guy
Then one day he said goodbye (goodbye)
To the person he used to be
And grew wings to set him free

He flew away from all of us
Away from what he once was
A charade of phony smiles
He's now a case in the X-files

And the chain around his neck is a reminder, a symbol of liberty
How free he once was in our society
He spends the day leaving his white mark on the statues of great men
'Cause he remembers how he used to hate them

He flies by outside my window
There are not many of his kind
He flies by, outside my window
He's the hero of our time

He had a dream
He had a dream about this world
He had a dream, he had a dream
He had a dream about this world

And the chain around his neck is a reminder, a symbol of liberty
How free he once was in our society
He spends the day leaving his white mark on the statues of great men
'Cause he remembers how he used to hate them

He flies by, outside my window
There are not many of his kind
He flies by outside my window
He's the hero of our time
He's the hero of our time
