Back against the wall,
at odds, with the strength of a will and cause
Your pursuits are called outstanding,
Your emotionally complex, against the grain
of dystopic claims
not those thoughts your actions entertained
And you have proved to be
A real human being
And a real hero
A pilot on a cold cold morn
155 people on board
All safe and all rescued from
The slowly sinking ship
Water warmer than his head so cool
In that tight bind knew what to do
And you have proved to be
A real human being
And a real hero
