we're not superheroes anymore,
were not as invincible as we always were.
But we'd still like to think ourselves the savior of the hour,
imagine me carrying on while the world went to hell.
I'm no one's idol, I think I deserve much less,
but honey you know best, can you let me in on every one's secret?
We were so sure the world wouldn't last without us,
that eventually, we forgot our own problems.
You hope, someday, over a sunrise, a shadow with open arms will
come down to save us all.
Our jobs aren't over, there's still a lot left to do,
coddle the sleazy and reprimand the just.
Our statues up on mount glory, they're made of frail things,
the slightest breeze will destroy them all.
Nothings left of us, nothings left to remember,
when we used to rule the world.
Nothings left of us, nothings left to remember,
all the times we would beat the sun to rise.
Oh well, all the heroes are dead now,
that doesn't mean we cant pretend.
I'll try a cape on for the last time,
just promise me...
That you'll watch me fall.
