I can't stand to fly 
I'm not that naive 
I'm just out to find 
The better part of me 

I'm more than a bird…I'm more than a plane 
More than some pretty face beside a train 
It's not easy to be me 

Wish that I could cry 
Fall upon my knees 
Find a way to lie 
About a home I'll never see 

It may sound absurd…but don't be naive 
Even Heroes have the right to bleed 
I may be disturbed…but won't you conceed 
Even Heroes have the right to dream 
It's not easy to be me 

Up, up and away…away from me 
It's all right…You can all sleep sound tonight 
I'm not crazy…or anything… 

I can't stand to fly 
I'm not that naive 
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 

It's not easy to be me
