Story Behind The Song
I grew up watching superhero films and one thing I always related to was the loneliness that the superhero possessed. They do these incredible and selfless things and it usually goes unnoticed. Inevitably anytime a superhero lets someone in they are hurt or the ones they love get hurt. This song is also a metaphor about not being able to completely be one's self and that lonely choice to stay alone. Love is the hero's one vulnerability.
Song Description
Superheroes have a lonely life but inevitably this song is about two things: the superhero and love. It's a metaphor about not being able to be completely one's self and how that desire to be selfless can truly undo everything good in one's life. Sometimes it's important to be selfish and choose love because as "superhuman" as we think we all are life is too short. There's this since of infinity about the song and how if you fly away from all the problems they go away. This song is right before the big fall. Inevitably anytime a superhero lets someone in they are hurt or the ones they love get hurt. But can you really live a life without love? Can you be all that you are without another person? I'm sure you can but what a lonely life it must be...

Lyrics
Superhuman
-Lyrics by Lucky Vita-
I'm bad at this
I don't know how to be with you
There's no danger and there's no risks
And I can fly away whenever I want to
I don't know love
But I know that I can save your life
When there's fire or wreckage from above
Yes I'll be there soaring through your sky
Chorus:
I don't feel anything
I'm superhuman
And even if I let you in
I'm superhuman
And I never learned how to love
I can't be with you
Living with me is a lonely road
That's my life and that's the truth
And I'll break your heart leaving you alone
I know you'll try
Breaking down walls to find my heart
There's no heart, I have no light
But you say you see something in the dark
(Chorus)
I'll fly away and you'll never find me
I'll fly away
I'll fly away and you'll never find me
I'll fly away
From love
From love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
