Superman Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Unlocked my phone, and watched the world die
They're crying to God while they run for their lives
Blood in the streets, bombs in the skies
Goodbye

[Verse 2]
I hope you had dreams come true
I hope they see in their crosshairs what I see in you
And I hope and I pray
'Cause that's all I can do

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't understand who is good or bad
They don't care as long as you got oil sands
We need something fast, we need something bad
More than guns and tanks
Where is Superman?

[Chorus]
Oh, Oh, Oh, where is Superman?
Oh, Oh, Oh, where is Superman?

[Verse 3]
I turn on the nеws and watch the world fight
Thousands of men making widows of wives
I'll bе home soon, walked off in the night
Goodbye
[Verse 4]
I will remember you
I know it's shoot or be shot, and they're men just like you
But I hope and I pray
'Cause that's all I can do

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't understand who is good or bad
They don't care as long as you got oil sands
We need something fast, we need something bad
More than guns and tanks
Where is Superman?

[Chorus]
Oh, Oh, Oh, where is Superman?
Oh, Oh, Oh, where is Superman?

[Bridge]
Soon
You won't need a TV or an iPhone to see because
You
Will look out the window and
Boom!

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't understand who is good or bad
They don't care as long as you got oil sands
We need something fast, we need something bad
More than guns and tanks
Where is Superman?
[Chorus]
Oh, Oh, Oh, where is Superman?
Oh, Oh, Oh, where is Superman?
