Ageing Superhero

Every time I think of growing up

I find out that I just slipped back, I got it all wrong

You know I feel younger than I did

When I was younger on a backwards track

I thought by now I could have figured it all out

Instead I'm further back

Feels kinda stupid but I feel 16 in my head

But I guess, it's only 5 years back

But I won't see the signs, it took so long

But you were always on my mind, yeah

For all the times I've tried

To take a little time out for myself

I'm just growing all alone again

But I find in my mind that I'm not

Time is running out

And I just want to say I'm sorry now

Before I'm all alone again

And I'm broken and cold

The ageing superhero in me is tired

Because he's lived too fast for too long

And he still longs to be inspired

I feel old, feel broke, feel cold

And I can't fight back, it sounds so stupid I

But it's gone, this train won't run

Guess, it must be the track

But I won't see the signs, it took so long

But you were always on my mind, yeah

For all the times I've tried

To take a little time out for myself

I'm just growing all alone again

But I find in my mind that I'm not

Time is running out

And I just want to say I'm sorry now

Before I'm all alone again

And I'm broken and cold

But I won't see the signs, it took so long

But you were always on my mind, yeah

For all the times I've tried

To take a little time out for myself

I'm just growing all alone again

But I find in my mind that I'm not

Time is running out

And I just want to say I'm sorry now

Before I'm all alone again

And I'm broken and cold

The ageing superhero in me is tired

Because he's lived too fast for too long

And he still longs to be inspired
