We wait for Superman,
Where is he now?
He said he'd be here,
He made a vow.

Our man of steel,
Has let us down.
Now it's up to us,
To save this town.

So let us unite,
And fight together.
Let's fair the storm,
And survive this bad weather.

As time goes by
We start to see,
That Superman
Just wasn't meant to be.

If he wouldn't have left,
We wouldn't have been united.
And our human spirit to live,
Would not have been ignited.

The truth of it is-

he's not going to fix you

she's not going to make you forget
the way your father would hit you

He is not going to make your collarbones sprout roses
He will not make you forget how to need

The truth of it is-

She is not a savior
She is not able to fight off the demons in your dreams

He will not make you forget the way your mother left
The bloodstains in the bathtub will still be there

The truth of it is-
This is your life
This is not a movie

No one is going to swoop in and save you

You will have to grow your own wings if you want to fly away
