So You Wanna Be a Superhero

There's banging on the wall

It's 5am –

I've got no sleep at all

Just thoughts of how

I might struggle through tomorrow

Too much time in one day

Too much time to occupy

Boring thoughts

And boring moods

And boring bedtimes

Won't tell a single soul that my soul's gone

It's hard to write this song

It's all a joke

It's all been wrote down by someone who's probably dead

I might be leaving soon

I might be leaving soon

There's laughter from below

It's 1am – how could you have known?

The thoughts of silence that had me

From going back to sleep that night

Wish I could call someone

I love to stop thinking of myself

Long look in the mirror

Just… looks back so blankly

You were right:

I can't do this

I'm going crazy, it's gone by me and you can't see

How much I think

I'm empty

I might be leaving soon

I might be leaving soon

I might be leaving soon

My dreams are full of what's not real

I'll fly away and save the world

I'll make you proud someday

I just won't be around to see your face

My life is full of what's not here

I'll go away and save myself

I'll make you proud someday

I just won't be around to see your face
