Superhero Lyrics

If only people knew what you'd been through

They'd ask you

How you could still smile at all?

You'd grimace back, and say

After all that, smiling's no walk in the park

You'd say I spent many nights crying alone in the dark

In the dark

Did it all for you,

I give you my life

Did it all for you,

Child of mine

Started asking the right questions

Broke my heart in two

'Cause all of a sudden, I could see right through

You became a superhero

Because you had to

You'd say I'd do it all again, so I'd have you

Did it all for you,

I give you my life

Did it all for you,

Child of mine

She said I knew in the seventh grade

A good mother I would make

But life went wrong, and I was afraid

Didn't know how much it would take

How much it would take

This life of mine

Give it all to you, child of mine

I give you my life, did it all for you

No matter how much it takes

And I'd do it again, too
