From the recording Stand the Fall
Lyrics
Almost Like Superman
I remember the morning
They found you in bed
We all heard the stories
What was going on in your head?
You had your armor
Shining blue and gold
But it couldn’t protect you
From the pain in your soul
I remember your parents
And the look on their face
Like if they could have
They’d have taken your place
They knew you loved them
No matter what we say
They never expected
You would leave them this way
On Sunday the arena was yours
By Monday you were left with the noise
You’d fly around, all around
No one would understand
You’d fly around
Almost like you were Superman
In the long days that followed
Your friends were concerned
What were we missing?
What should we have learned?
There’s no prize for hiding
What’s going on inside
When your mind’s left to wander
It might tell us lies
On Sunday the arena was yours
By Monday you were left with the noise
You’d fly around ‘til you’d hit the ground
No one would understand
You’d fly around
Almost like you were Superman
That wasn’t enough
That wasn’t enough
