about

Superhero is about how we have a tendancy to repress emotion. We put on a brave face but underneath we're often dealing with problems.

lyrics

Lyrics:

If you have a problem, and no one else can help
I’ll be your rock you cling to, support and give you strength

I’ll be there in the bad times, and always make a stand,
When you cannot find your way, I will hold you hand

Don’t fear that I can’t take it, I can’t handle the truth
Take your gun and pull the trigger, I am bullet proof

[Chorus]
I want to be everybody’s friend
Somebody on whom you can depend
But what my costume doesn’t show
Is that I’m tired of being a hero

If the worlds weight is too heavy, and you need a friend
Shine your light up in the sky, I’ll be overhead.

Once flying now falling, from my macho skies
Not showing my emotions, it’s my kryptonite

I wear my cape with courage, I wear my cape with pride
But when I get home, I hang it up and all I do is hide

[Chorus]

I’m a shoulder to lean on, but my tears they go un-cried
But sadness ends up somewhere, I’m drowning on the inside

Bridge
I wear my cape with courage, I my cape with pride
But when I get home, I hang it up and all I do is hide

[Chrous]
