Superxero (demo) Songtext
von Linkin Park

So, what do you think?

What do I do to ignore what′s behind me?
Do I follow my fate to escape blindly?
Do I hide my pride away from these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?

Do I let it go and try to stand it?
Or do I try to catch them red-handed?
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness?
Or do I trust none and live life in loneliness?

The sunlight burns the skin of sleeping men
I make the right turns but I'm lost within
I put on my daily facade but then
I just end up getting hurt again by myself

(Myself)
I ask why (but in my mind I find)
I can′t rely on myself
(Myself)
I ask why (but in my mind I find)
I can't rely on myself


I can't hold on (to what I want when I′m stretched so thin)
It′s all too much to take in
I can't hold on (when I′m against you I can't win)
With thoughts of failure sinking in

If I turn my back I′m defenseless
And to give in to fate seems senseless
If I hide my pride, I lie sleepless
And won't be able to cope with my weakness

If I let them go, I′ll be outdone
But if I try to catch them I'll be outrun
If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer
Then I′ll be buried in the silence of the answer by myself

(Myself)
I ask why (but in my mind I find)
I can′t rely on myself
(Myself)
I ask why (but in my mind I find)
I can't rely on myself

I can′t hold on (to what I want when I'm stretched so thin)
It′s all too much to take in
I can't hold on (when I′m against you I can't win)
With thoughts of failure sinking in


How do you think that I've lost so much?
Always afraid and I′m out of touch
How do you expect that I will know what to do
When all I know is what you tell me to?

Don′t you (know)
I can't tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I can′t seem to convince myself (why)
I'm stuck on the outside

Don′t you (know)
I can't tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I can′t seem to convince myself (why)
I'm stuck on the outside

I can't hold on (to what I want when I′m stretched so thin)
It′s all too much to take in
I can't hold on (when I′m against you I can't win)
With thoughts of failure sinking in

I can′t hold on (to what I want when I'm stretched so thin)
It′s all too much to take in
I can't hold on (when I'm against me I can′t win)
With thoughts of failure from with-
