lyrics

I dropped to my knees
Don't want to be this way anymore
Head hung in defeat
Gaze fixed on the floor

I cannot melt into the walls
I cannot probe into your thoughts
I cannot burn you with my eyes
I’m not a supersonic man
Never to be caught
I cannot take flight to the skies

You know I ain't no superhero
There's no power in these hands
You know I ain't no freak of nature
Not your saviour, just a man

There’s no symbol upon my chest
No mysteries to solve
I’m not a god upon this earth
Sent to save you from yourselves

No mask conceals my face
No cape blows in the wind
No light shines in the night
No shield protects my life
No armour clads my skin
No chains contain my might

You know I ain't no superhero
There's no power in these hands
You know I ain't no freak of nature
Not your saviour, just a man

No sound comes from my mouth
As I call out to the sky
If there was a sound to hear
There’d be no one to reply

You know I ain't no superhero
There's no power in these hands
You know I ain't no freak of nature
Not your saviour, no

You know I ain't no superhero
There's no power in these hands
You know I ain't no freak of nature
Not your saviour, just a man
