No Heroes Anymore (feat. Nivkii)

Finally a new song with Nivkii. It started with the instrumental as i was experimenting with a song containing only "real" instruments to get the feeling of an indie garage band. The song is maybe a bit too dramatic but we had fun with it.

The cover artwork was done in blender and is supposed to remind you of the 20th century fox logo, a scyscraper, advertisements, maybe a bit of monty python and the colors are inspired by superman and spider-man.

Some fun facts:
- i didn't use any autotune or pitch correction
- most of the lyrics were written by nivkii
- the song started on the 17th of june 2022


Lyrics:

Ran right out the door
Can't take all those pictures
On the news
Don't give me more
Sure I still hope there's saving

Raptured to the core
No room left in my chest
So sell my heart
At the store
Next to all of the solutions

No heroes anymore
This world will crash and fall
So let us toast
Right before
It all just goes downhill
I'm scared there are...

No heroes anymore
The prophecies were false
So let us toast
Right before
The shadows darken the horizon

No heroes anymore
Just tales and stories for us all
The ones in need get ignored
Could they be the true escape

The world like once before
our screams shouldn't be unheard
Hand in hand
Through the storm
Right into the next disaster

The world like once before
our screams shouldn't be unheard
Hand in hand
Through the storm
Right into the next disaster

No heroes anymore
This world will crash and fall
So let us toast
Right before
It all just goes downhill
I'm scared there are...

No heroes anymore
The prophecies were false
So let us toast
Right before
The shadows darken the horizon
