Accidental Superhero

Accidental Superhero

Verse 1

You held me while I was n-a-k-e-d

That's when I was most vulnerable

I felt the coldness of modern society

You warmed me up with love and understanding

You shielded me from ridicule and judgement

You never once left me all alone

My fears were soothed, my tears wiped away

I depended on you to survive

I depended on you to be my guiding light

Verse 2

I thought about being six feet under

I thought of an easy way out of my pain

But you gave me the will to continue to live

Now I know what joy and happiness are

Verse 3

How can I thank you for supporting me?

How can I repay you for your gratitude?

Words are never enough, neither is money

I'll let my actions speak for themselves

Bridge

Death was within reach

Life was becoming extinct

I did not know who I was

Somehow in between the chaos and confusion

You became my superhero

Chorus

You're my accidental superhero

You never set out to be one

But you turned into one when I needed you the most

You saved my life time and time again

No words can express the love I have for you

Outro

Superhero, that's what you are to me

Thank you
