Superhero

Standing on top of the world with you
Seemed like a good idea at the time
But now I've come to realise
That falling back down
Hurts so much more than the climb

Can we talk about it?
Is it even worth it?
Am I kidding myself?

Cos I don't need a superhero
Just to waste my time
Wearing capes and chasing bad guys
Just isn't my style
So can you stay a while?

Used to be a gimmick
But now I hardly see you
You're far too busy saving the world
But I can't take much more of this
So here's your happy ending
You've saved the world
And now you've lost the girl

I watch you from afar
Soaring through the sky
Is it too late to save us?

Cos I don't need a superhero
Just to waste my time
Wearing capes and chasing bad guys
Just isn't my style
So can you stay a while?

In the villain's lair
You're tied to a chair
When I appear from nowhere

But do I need a superhero?
Or any other guy?
Could I leave you here to die
And move on with my life?

Cos I don't need a superhero
Just to waste my time
Wearing capes and chasing bad guys
Just isn't my style
So can you stay a while?
