Superman Is Far Away

I feel like my life is a pit slowly swallowing me whole

And my heart is really empty, but I just pretend it’s full

And I look in the mirror and despise my reflection

Because all my life I have been striving for perfection

But all I see is a flawed monster who is breaking

And every single day my heart is aching

So I sit here alone

While he’s just a name on my phone

And the only thing that makes me smile

And the only one who takes away the pain for awhile

Yes, my Superman’s five thousand miles away

So he’s not here to save the day

So I’ll cry myself to sleep another night

Because no one hears my silent plight
