[Verse 1] Well, they're selling another messiah here tonight But we're all way too numb and divided to buy it Singing (no, no, no) We are all too divided this time (No, no, no) [Chorus] Show me a leader that won't compromise Show me a leader so hope never dies (We need a hero this time) No-oh-oh-oh, no-oh-oh-oh, no-oh-oh-oh [Verse 2] Disillusioned and tired of waiting for the one Whose intentions are pure unpersuaded, we can trust Singing (no, no, no) Cause a promise is never enough (No, no, no) [Chorus] Show me a leader that won't compromise Show me a leader so hope never dies
(We need a hero this time) [Bridge] I know, I know, I know if we're to survive We need to know this is not the end How will we ever get by It's getting harder to fight out here on our own [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Show me a leader that won't compromise Show me a leader so hope never dies Show me a leader that knows what is right Show me a leader so hope can survive [Outro] We need a hero this time (No) (No) We need a hero this time (No) Or we will never survive (No) (No) We need a hero this time (No) Or we will never survive
