cast of songs from the wild - if you weren't a hero lyrics

[zelda, spoken]
your path seems to mirror your father’s. you’ve dedicated yourself to becoming a knight as well. although—well, i know it seems silly, but…
(sung)
say things were different from the way they’ve all turned out—
let’s say you never were a knight
what if you’d never set one foot inside the castle?
suppose the world had turned out “right”

would you ever wonder about how things might have been
or think about the times that never were?
there’s a million lifetimes inside you and me—
there’s so much of me i’ve never got to share

but close your eyes, and put all your fears to one side
let the air stand still, and hold until you feel alive

if you weren’t a hero, would you still be who you are
or would you live a life you’ve always wanted to lead?
wandering the wilderness, no matter how far, just to breathe…
or would you even recognize the person that was hiding underneath?

there’s something stunning in the way the air can always calm me down
it’s like the world all fades to grey, to days before i bore the crown
and in that moment, a new life comes into view—
one where you and i could start anew
i know that words don’t come too easy, so i’m asking this in kind:
do you think you could open up your doors to let me inside?
i’m trying hard to understand, but you won’t look me in the eye
how do i start over again, now that we weren’t so stuck in hyrule?

but you aren’t under my rule
so take a breath, and clear your mind
and raise your gaze up to the sky
and just pretend that life isn’t so cruel…

so if you weren’t my hero, would you carve your own way through?
and would you bring the outside back, to share a piece of it with me, too?
if you weren’t a hero, would you hunt down all the skies you hadn’t seen?

and if you weren’t my hero, and you had no obligation
would you stay here just the same, for the better of the nation?
or would you leave to clear your mind, and try to leave this all behind
and live the life that might have been?

we’ve both been pushed into these roles i know we never wanted
the pressure rising for the princess and her knight appointed
and i know that you understand these many things i’m feeling—
we are the same, responsibilities from floor to ceiling

none of these legends still apply, and yet i’m forced to read this droll
if there’s a goddess in the heavens, she mustn’t like me much at all
because she never listens—now i’m a silent princess
waiting for the moment to fall
do you feel that way at all?
and if you weren’t a hero, would you take your chance at peace
and would you live a life of your design?
somewhere that you get to change the rules
and choose what’s taken as divine?

if you weren’t a hero, would you still be who you are
or would you live the life you’ve always wanted to lead?
and what if, one day, you woke up
and realized that your life is stuck
and this is not the way you’re meant to be?

and would you even recognize the person calling out underneath?

(sighs.)
