Superhero
Flobots Song Lyrics

We believed in love, when love wasn't an option

She wanted to give birth, I wanted adoption

After days and days of conversation, we decided to go with fertilization

Then came baby showers and lamaze classes, 2am phone calls, one minute contractions

But then they wisked me away like brigadoon, no domestic partners in the delivery room

But if I was a superhero I would break free

Wouldn't need anyone to come and save me

And you couldn't make me, feel like I'm crazy

I would see my baby, I would see my baby

And if I was a superhero I would break free

And I wouldn't be in prison wherever you take me

I would change everyone that's trying to change me

I would see my baby, I would see my baby

Life in an occupied land is hard, we pushed harder

Soon to be a mom, him to be a father

Boys with guns at the checkpoint and brothel

Wouldn't let me pass when I said I need a doctor

I don't know the source of the passport errors

Or how four hours produced a miscarriage

But when it comes to populations too disparaged

Gaza's on the list, right below gay marriage

But if I was a superhero I would break free

Wouldn't need anyone to come and save me

And you couldn't make me, feel like I'm crazy

I would see my baby, I would see my baby

And if I was a superhero I would break free

And I wouldn't be in prison wherever you take me

I would change everyone who's trying to change me

I would see my baby, I would see my baby

There's something on my heart, there's someone on my mind

I never would have thought that I could be so angry,

But please give me the patience, please give me the patience

There's something on my heart, there's someone on my mind

I never would have thought that I could be so angry,

But please give me the patience, please give me the patience

But if I was a superhero I would break free

Wouldn't need anyone to come and save me

And you couldn't make me, feel like I'm crazy

I would see my baby, I would see my baby

Yeah if I was a superhero I would break free

And I wouldn't be in prison wherever you take me

I would change everyone who's trying to change me

I would see my baby, I would see my baby

Yeah if I was a superhero I would break free

And I wouldn't be in prison wherever you take me

I would change everyone who's trying to change me

I would see my baby, I would see my baby
