No Savior For Superman Overworked, fatigued No Justice League A man with so much pain But doesn’t bleed Only half the story fits Inside the books you read The yellow sun gives strength Love makes him weak Perfect physique With a flawed mind And a heart that spoke too loudly At the wrong time Can’t use the speed force To fix his past mistakes He just lives with them Every breath he takes A lonely life Fortress Of Solitude Lies underneath his chest’s “S” And can’t be viewed Faster than a speeding bullet She pulled away It crushed his heart Broke him like Doomsday Who saves Superman When he needs saving? Who do the gods pray to When they’re praying? Certainly Even heroes have emergencies And need someone To rescue them urgently When tsunamis hit And the floods break through the walls When fires burn the city And the tallest buildings fall When gravity’s too strong And there’s no strength left to stand Without a helping hand Tell me, who saves Superman? Who? Who? Who saves Superman? When the sun goes dark Who saves Superman? When the world starts to crumble And nobody has a plan… When the day is saved Tell me, who saves Superman? Man of steel With a heart of glass He saves the world But who’s saving his ass Confined in kryptonite Shackles and chains One kiss from Lois Lane Could take all his pain But she’s gone She’s nowhere to be found He searches, leaping tall buildings In a single bound Invincible Yet so dead inside Thoughts weigh heavy With no one to confide Heat vision can’t heal his broken heart Only love from a woman worlds apart He tries to deny that he’s weak, but he’s broken and beat as he falls from the sky to the street He holds the page of a golden age in his mind left behind in these colder days He shoulders pain of a hopeful brain With no restraint to refrain from thinking of the memories retained An alien To this world of hurt He found treasure That roams this ball of dirt Powerless Against mental attacks He only needs one thing Just his Lois back When tsunamis hit And the floods break through the walls When fires burn the city And the tallest buildings fall When gravity’s too strong And there’s no strength left to stand Without a helping hand Tell me, who saves Superman? Who? Who? Who saves Superman? When the sun goes dark Who saves Superman? When the world starts to crumble And nobody has a plan… When the day is saved Tell me, who saves Superman?
