"There Are No Heroes Anymore"

A Poem by Rick Curti

 

"There Are No Heroes Anymore" By Rick Curti

 

I'm sitting all alone without a thought in my head

I'm watching the news on t.v. and hearing everyone is dead

The world is in trouble and it seems nobody cares

Kids being gunned down, because of the colors they wear

 

That's why "There Are No Heroes Anymore"

 

Heroes become villians and villians become heroes

Celebrities with problems becoming zeroes

Affection is gone and replaced with hatred

That's why "There Are No Heroes Anymore"

 

Bosse's in charge missusing there power

Young guys earning a living, working by the hour

Your getting in trouble for something you didn't do

Something's gone wrong and they want to blame you

 

That's Why "There Are No Heroes Anymore"

 

You go home and drown yourselves with drinks

Tragedies going on, because people don't think

Affection is gone and replaced with hatred

That's why "There Are No Heroes Anymore"
