Silent Hero

You were my hero in disguise Wings on your back, never tied

But time reveals what eyes can't see A heart that's strong, quietly

I used to think you never broke With every step you seemed to float

But growing older I could tell The world was heavy and you fell

It wasn't you that lost your might It was my eyes that lost the light

The cape you wore, it's torn and frayed But I see now, it's never swayed

You held the ground beneath my feet But I couldn't feel the heat

Mama, you were flying high I never saw the way to high

Now I see you're still a queen A silent force behind the scene

Oh, mama, you're the reason why I can touch the sky
