lyrics

Late at night under the covers
Lit up by an old flashlight
The dragons and the cowboys would all come alive
The bravest ones who saved the day were the ones I most admired
But the faces of the heroes so seldom looked like mine

So I turned on the TV
Keeping vigil for a sign
Of a heroine to root for
But she was absent by design
And I turned on the radio
And listened oh so close
Just waiting for a chorus
That sounded like my own

Teach me
A song
One that I can hear myself in
So I know I belong
Teach me
A song
With a part that I can learn
So I can sing along

In my history textbooks
so many were left out
The heroes who look different
from the ones who wrote it out

Everyone needs a story,
In which they play a role
Everyone needs an anthe
that liberates their soul
