LYRICS:
I will break, take the strain
'Cos it's easier to hide when nobody knows your name
So take me, take me as I am
There's no one else can save me
I don't think that I can stand anymore
Down here I'm holding on I'm nobody's someone
So keep the pressure on tomorrow will never come
When there's no one else around and the world is breaking down
You can be my hero, I'll be whatever you may need
Just promise that you will... be there in the end
And when that lightening strikes again I'm burning out without a friend
You can be my hero, I'll be whatever you may need
Just promise that you will... be there in the end
Call if safe, call it home
Call it anything you like and know you'll never feel alone
So kick me, keeping me in check
It's hard to see things clearly with the noose around your neck
Down here I'm holding on I'm nobody's someone
So keep the pressure on tomorrow will never come
When there's no one else around and the world is breaking down
You can be my hero, I'll be whatever you may need
Just promise that you will... be there in the end
And when that lightening strikes again I'm burning out without a friend
You can be my hero, I'll be whatever you may need
Just promise that you will... be there in the end

ABOUT BEN: Ben hit the small screen in 2003 on Channel 4 soap "Hollyoaks" and became a household name. However, his love of writing and performing music led to him amicably leaving the show to pursue a career he had always dreamed of… Having been in various bands since the age of 13, Ben has toured the entire UK on numerous occasions including a number of headline tours and support slots for Twin Atlantic, Wheatus, Zebra Head and The Foundations to name a few... Ben took time out to focus on his family and has now returned to the music scene solo with a blend of mature pop fused with his rock tones, perfected through years of punk... The results are breathtaking!
