Lyrics
You hold out like a superhero
Refusing to be beat
Even when your strength is zero
And your old bravado can't compete
I've watched you fight your fights
It's such a show of might
Through all those endless nights what do you do
When the lights go down and you're all alone
Crumbling underneath the weight
When the load's so big you got no more to give
You break
Nobody sees
The tears of Hercules
It's o.k. to be fragile
Let your pride disappear
Every human has to battle
With the burden of his doubts and fears
But you can let them go
Empty out your heart and soul
Baby don't you know I'm here for you
Chorus:
Bridge:
When you're brought down to your knees
Baby hold onto me
Hold onto me
When the lights go down and you're all alone
Crumbling underneath the weight
When the load's so big you got no more to give
Break
Baby let me see
The tears of Hercules
Baby let me see
The tears of Hercules
