The Velvet Teen - Super Me

He keeps to himself these days
Doesn't have much to talk about
But he tells himself over and again
"She'll be here soon."
Emotions are all the same
Maybe just love and lonliness
But that enlightenment doesn't help at all
It just makes it worse when she's not around
That's when the sky cries for him and
The lightning strikes
He's mesmerized
Oh, super me
You're all that I long to
Tries not to think too much
Everything makes him think of her
When reason escapes him
Love takes it's place
He's got a frame of mind
Which captures the bigger picture But that enlightenment doesn't help at all
It just makes it worse when she's not around
That's when the sky cries for him and
The lightning strikes
He's mesmerized
If the end of the world came crashing down on him
He'd welcome it
With open arms like an old friend
And oh, super me
You're all that I long to be
Searching the skies and to my surprise
We always end up
In each other's arms
You help me to the discern
As I fall apart
You willed me to start again, again
That's when the sky cries for him
The lightning strikes him down
With open arms like an old friend
