Someone once wrote, “To be alone I feel it necessary to escape the present.” This is how I’m feeling and have felt for two weeks now. I’ve got to tell you it royally sucks, this feeling. I don’t wish to escape to the past either as that just makes me miserable also. I wish I could be anyone but me right now. Ok, maybe not anyone but I just don’t wish to be me at the moment.
I know I’m not a man but the lyrics here are how I’m feeling at this current moment.
Five For Fighting sing this, not me…
I do not own the lyrics, vocals or music…
Superman
By: Five For Fighting
I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
I’m just out to find
The better part of me
I’m more than a bird
I’m more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It’s not easy to be me
Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I’ll never see
It may sound absurd but don’t be naive
Even Heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed but won’t you concede
Even Heroes have the right to dream
It’s not easy to be me
Up, up and away, away from me
It’s all right
You can all sleep sound tonight
I’m not crazy, or anything
I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
Men weren’t meant to ride
With clouds between their knees
I’m only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
It’s not easy to be me.
