I can't stand to fly I'm not that naïve I'm just out to find The better part of me
I'm more than a bird, I'm more than a plane I'm more than some pretty face beside a train It's not easy to be me
I wish that I could cry Fall upon my knees Find a way to lie 'Bout a home I'll never see
It may sound absurd but don't be naïve Even heroes have the right to bleed I may be disturbed but won’t you concede Even heroes have the right to dream And it's not easy to be me
Up, up and away, away from me Well, it's alright You can all sleep sound tonight I'm not crazy or anything
I can't stand to fly I'm not that naïve Men weren't meant to ride With clouds between their knees
I'm only a man in a silly red sheet Digging for kryptonite on this one way street Only a man in a funny red sheet Looking for special things inside of me Inside of me, inside of me [2x]
I’m only a man in a funny red sheet I’m only a man looking for a dream I’m only a man in a funny red sheet And it's not easy. It's not easy to be me.
