The drugs begin to peak
A smile of joy arrives in me
But sedation changes to panic and nausea
And breath starts to shorten
And heartbeats pound softer
You won't try to save me
You just want to hurt me
And leave me desperate
You taught my heart
A sense I never knew I had
I can't forget
The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine
You won't leave me alone
Chisel my heart out of stone
I give in everytime [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/silverstein/my_heroine.html ]
You taught my heart
A sense I never knew I had
I can't forget
The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine
I bet you laugh
At the thought of me thinking for myself (myself)
I bet you believe (bet you believe)
That I'm better off with you than someone else
Your face arrives again
A hope I had become surreal
But under your cover's
More torture than pleasure
And just past your lips
There's more anger than laughter
Not now or forever will I ever change you
I know that to go on I'll break you, my habit
You taught my heart
A sense I never knew I had
I can't forget
The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine

To me my heroine is a song that reminds me of my first love... I was 14 when we started going out. And he showed me this song as sid it's our song. We did have a few songs that we called our own but, this is the one that stayed in my head the longest. And even though we broke up around 5 months afterwards; when i hear this song i still feel the same way about him as i did then. I miss him and he changed me and for all those good memories we had... I will never forget him.

When you lost something, there's always something holding you back from killing yourself.

Its amazing
its basicly saying hes in love with a girl , who hurt him plenty of times and he keeps going back
This is my favorite silverstein song of all time. I know most people like this song, but i like it because of the lyrics. The acoustic version of this song sounds amazing..
I read somewhere, that shane told meant two different things with my heroine. The drugs, but the female hero too..
The female, could've saved the man's life it's about. But than se betrayed him or something, and he got depressed. But now he wants to get over it, and be happy again.
And the drug version, i think. Is about it helped him forget things, and than he became an addict, and that he couldn't live without it. And now (because the: i will save myself) that he wants to come clean, just what nekomatarashi said.
I don't think people should argue about what this song means, because i think, that it means what you want it to mean. Besides this, i still love this song, and it's my fav.
@crystals21: please refrain from comparing an epic band like silverstein to a horrible movie/book like twilight.
Meaning: it's about a guy's struggle with pot. It says "heroine" because it saved him from his troubles. "i bet you laught at the thought of me thinking for myself" refers to how it affects the brain and makes you do things you normaly wouldn't. Also the first paragraph refers to the physical effects it haves on you. When it says "you won't try to save me, you just want to hurt me and leave me desperate" that's his common sense telling him that he shouldn't be doing it. Then of course the end "i will save myself" is him saying that he's going to try and become clean and break his habbit.
This song states that sometimes,theres something we think that it is very useful to us.. It can help us in any reason to be happy but at the back of this is such a black result which leads you to something breath taking setuation and makes you decide to help your own self instead of anything or anybody!!!
I first thought that this song was a soundtrack for the movie "the number 23" but no. The movie is kinda depressing in a thrilling kind of way.. Ow, and by the way, my favorite number is, 23 :))
