Show Me a Leader

  • 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)

    Show me a leader that won't compromise
    Show me a leader so hope never dies
    We need a hero this time (no no no)

    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)

    Show me a leader that won't compromise
    Show me a leader so hope never dies, we need a hero this time

    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

    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 we need a hero this time

    No no no we need a hero this time
    Or we will never survive No no no
    We need a hero this time
    Or we will never survive Writer/s: MARK TREMONTI, MYLES R RICHARD KENNEDY
