lyrics

‘Superman’
Words and music by Thom Carter. Copyright Verlaine Records 2010. All Rights Reserved.


I am not a Superman,
I don’t have much control,

I am on a burning raft,
Trying to stay afloat,

I’m not on a chosen path,
I choose it as I go,

I don’t need the sun to rise,
I’m waiting for the moon.


I am not a Superman,
I don’t want to implode,

I am still an innocent,
I just don’t feel it anymore,

I don’t think I’m a prisoner,
But I just want to be sure,

That no ne else has got the key,
To the lock that I once broke…


Leaves of ferns unfold,
Open like hands,
Open like a trap…
Like a trap.


On a little ship,
That goes a long way,
To catch a little fish,

On an easterly breeze,
All along the shoreline,
Of St Leonard’s-on-Sea,

I am blown around,
Like a diver underwater,
Chasing stones down,


Seas of wishes that I can’t turn,
Into anything that looks like her,

Angry people blaming me,
When I don’t know them from the wind,

Towers from an occupation,
Or maybe they were built to withstand invasion?


I am both that stand as one,
Twin is written in my name,
From the Hebrew source,

But I am not a Superman,
I am not a Superman,
I am not a Superman,
Superman.
