Lyrics
sleep walking through the all-nite drug storebaptized in fluorescent lighti found religion in the greeting card aislenow i know hallmark was rightand every pop song on the radiois suddenly speaking to meart may imitate lifebut life imitates t.v.'cuz you've been gone exactly two weekstwo weeks and three daysand let's just say thatthings look different nowdifferent in so many waysi used to be a superherono one could touch menot even myselfyou are like a phone booththat i somehow stumbled intoand now look at mei am just like everybody elseif i was dressed in my best defenseswould you agree to meet me for coffeeif i did my tricks with smoke and mirrorswould you still know which one was meif i was naked and screamingon your front lawnwould you turn on the light and come downscreaming, there's the assholewho did this to mestripped me of my powerstripped me downi used to be a superherono one could touch menot even myselfyou are like a phone booththat i somehow stumbled intoand now look at mei am just like everybody elseyeah you've been gone exactly two weekstwo weeks and three daysand now i'm a different persondifferent in so many waystell me what did you like about meand don't say my strength and daring'cuz now i think i'm at your mercyand it's my first time for this kind of thingi used to be a superheroi would swoop down and save mefrom myselfbut you are like a phone booththat i somehow stumbled intoand now look at mei am just like everybody else
