A 'Reflection' song

lyrics

© & ℗ 2011, 2017 Craig Hallen Music
Written by Craig Hallen

I’m tired of pretending
I’m living in a comic strip
DC and Marvel have their heroes
This disguise I’m wearing
Belongs in a fantasy world
Without broken hearts and mortals

‘Cause I’m no superhero
It still hurts when I hit the ground
I’m tired of taking the fall
Well I’m no superhero at all

I’ve tried to run faster
Along uneven ground
But I already know I’m no crusader
The weight is still heavy
And it’s been wearing me down
I’m no ten foot tall defender

‘Cause I’m no superhero
It still hurts when I hit the ground
I’m tired of taking the fall
Well I’m no superhero at all

I can’t stop a speeding train
I can’t save a falling plane
A bullet will shatter my vein
So you and I are the same

‘Cause I’m no superhero
It still hurts when I hit the ground
I’m tired of taking the fall
Well I’m no superhero at all

(I never said I could fight or fly)
‘Cause I’m no superhero
(Oh I’m no superhero)
It still hurts
(I can’t always defend myself)
When I hit the ground
(I’m just like everybody else)
I’m tired
(No x-ray vision or mind control)
Of taking the fall
(No way to prove I’m infallible)
Well I’m no superhero at all
