(Based on Five for Fighting's "Superman")
I can’t stand the pain
I can’t be relieved
I’m no more aloft
Than I was on New Year’s Eve
I’m down on my luck
And out of my league
I don’t think a common fool could fail to see
That it’s not easy to be me
I might spend my life
Crashing on my knees
Exhausted from the run
To the goal I’ll never see
Yeah, down on my luck
And out of my league
Are just two endless states attached to me
With every attempt
The more that I see
That every one just brings more misery
No, it’s not easy to be me
Each time just outside, outside my reach
It’s just not right
I cannot sleep sound at night
I’m not crazy... for now at least
I can’t stand thepain
I can’t be relived
Men weren’t meant to die
Chasing down a fruitless dream
I’m only a man, and I start to see
That bein’ left breathless means you cannot breathe
Only a man who can’t reach his dream
I shoulda lost hope by now but somehow I still believe
I still believe, yeah I still!
believe,
I still believe
I’m only a man whose fortune’s unreal
A victim of fate with a will of steel
I’m only a man whose luck is deplete
No it’s not easy
It’s not easy to be me
