Superman

I don't wanna call you dad

When you're hurting the ones that you love

It don't work like that

And I don't wanna call you back

When you're holding onto a lie

And the phone in the other hand

It makes me mad

Don't you make my mama cry

When you come walking in tonight

And don't you make me pick a side

Just have my back a million times

And you don't even try to care

'Cause you won't fight and you won't swear

But you'll still make my mama cry

Superman

When I was a kid

You were my superman

I thought that you could fly

But now I'm losing a hero

I used to know

Now when you hold out your hands

Don't see no superman

I guess I grew up too fast

Barely recognized the face I see in photographs

You want help but you don't ask

I don't really hate you but I hate what's in your glass

Oh, don't you make my mama cry

When you come walking in tonight

And don't you make me pick a side

'Cause you just make my mama cry

Superman

When I was a kid

You were my superman

I thought that you could fly

But now I'm losing a hero

I used to know

Now when you hold out your hands

Don't see no superman

Oh, it's gotta hurt

Falling from the sky

Crashing back down to earth

I thought that you could fly

But now I'm losing a hero

I used to know

Now when you hold out your hands

Don't see no superman
