Kryptonite

(album: Breathe Again - 2013)

Feels like the weight of the world is on my shoulders
You know I love you, but I just need some time
I know I said nothing would come between us
But I just can't bear it to see you cry
I wanted to be your everything, baby
I wanted to be the one you count on to make it right
But tonight I can't be your Superman

[Chorus:]
Cause your tears are my kryptonite, oh, oh
This is killing me
Your tears are my kryptonite, oh, oh
I can't take anymore
I don't wanna let you down
When I just can't fly
Cause I'm dying inside
Your tears are my kryptonite
And I just gotta get away

I always thought that I would be the one to save you
But I'm the one that you need saving from
I can't break this wall down between us
I guess I'm not the man you thought I was
I wanted to be your everything, baby
I wanted to be the one you count on to make it right
But tonight I can't be your Superman

[Chorus:]
Cause your tears are my kryptonite, oh, oh
This is killing me
Your tears are my kryptonite, oh, oh
I can't take it anymore
I don't wanna let you down
When I just can't fly
Cause I'm dying inside
Your tears are my kryptonite
And I just gotta get away

I'm trying to do the selfless thing
I don't wanna see you hurting anymore
Because of me
It's killing me
Mercy

[Chorus:]
Cause your tears are my kryptonite, oh, oh
This is killing me
Your tears are my kryptonite, oh, oh
I can't take it anymore
I don't wanna let you down
When I just can't fly
Cause I'm dying inside
Your tears are my kryptonite
And I just gotta get away

I just gotta get away, away
I just gotta get away
Your tears are
Your tears are
Your tears are my kryptonite
