FALLEN SUPER HEROS

I'm sorry your parents don't care
and God was never there
I'm sorry I can't make you smile
its been awhile since I've done it myself
and you think your thoughts faded out of style
I'm sorry things happend this way
I'm not a super hero, I can't save today
I'm sorry you've got a gun to your head
its not a story I haven't read
one day it falls apart and this is how she bled
Sometimes we need to fly away
away from all that holds us safe
I'm so sorry it works out this way
I'm not a super hero I can't save today
In our imaginations we create
a monster of ourselves we hate
who thrive on pain and sorrow
I'm not a super hero I can't save tomorrow
kryptonite placed in my chest
it weakens some and kills the rest
faith is now put to the test
I'm sorry it works out this way
but God can't save today
I'm sorry things fell apart
the one you loved let go of your heart
I'm not a super hero I cant save today
even if I was who said I'd want to anyway
but in the end it will be ok
hold my hand you'll be ok
its just a problem it will pass
it's just today it won't last
get on your knees and pray
tomorrow will come fast
