Who can I believe in when all my heroes are gone?
Does anybody out there know their right from wrong?
I can't trust the president, I can't trust the cops
I can't believe my ears when the radio's on
I feel so lonely in your world
So disappointed in your world
I'm making my own way
Trying to learn from my mistakes
'Cause I've got no role model
No footsteps I can follow
I'm making my own way
And I can't expect a teacher to keep me safe from harm
I can't expect a criminal to say he's wrong
But at the lowest standards I need a stand up friend
Someone I can look up to put my faith back in
So I'm turning off the TV and I smashed my radio
'Cause I realize my heroes are the people I already know
And I'm burning up the papers and tearing up all the magazines
'Cause they make me feel so lonely
When there's no one who represends me
