Superman

Superman

Matches (The)
(album: Decomposer)

I swear that you believed me
when I told you that I was Superman
With you I can even fool myself
We´ve been friends since we were 12,
now I´ll be 17 on the 24th
You´ve posed for 5 years on my shelf
I counted seasons ´til the fall
when I would steal your heart
You left the scene before my crime
I think about you
when I´m sick and tired of stupid girls
I think about you all the time

I am Superman with you
Oh, c´mon, you know you´re my hero, too
Oh, it might sound like a lie
But I know and you know
that Superman can fly

Stared through the menu on the wall
we´ve read too many times
Lit a match to watch it burn
You keep me waiting longer every day
but still I´m here
The more you live, the less I learn

Went to Marine world,
tried to find the words to say to you
But I couldn´t find the place to start
I love you, I hate you
All I know is that I don´t know nothing
And nothing´s gonna break my heart -
break down to a thousand pieces

One more second with these words unsaid
they´ll catch fire in my head
and I might look like a fool here,
and sure, you might pretend I´m making this up,
but I don´t care.
