When we were kids Superman never drank And when we were kids No one knew him as a junkie We looked up to him And, somedays, without even knowing We acted just like he did When he got caught Being so shameless Just like a little kid Searching for his hero His eyes cried, "save me" But his jaw was a trap Already sprung to capture his breath Behind his innocence is shame Hidden crimes plagued by his pain Borne under a lode of Midwest coal It's breaking all of his bones Superman won't fly without his cape Just like a little boy won't sleep without his blanket So if that hero takes his off And throws it away Can that boy still play To spite his common cold? He was stuck out in the snow So he warbled all his words So when we try to sing it We try to sound just like he did And now we sing "Modern saviors only live They only live until their deaths" Behind his innocence is shame Hidden crimes plagued by his pain Borne under a lode of Midwest coal It's breaking all of his bones We found him in the sun A beautiful diamond Like a solitaire vow that broke Like a solitaire vow that broke Heroes never learn It's why they always get burned To teach us to take our wax wings elsewhere Not to bring us back to Earth But to aid us on our search Where they wouldn't dare So, get up and dry your eyes You know a hero never cries So when you're hero takes you to war Just remember what What you kept, what you kept That blanket for
