Invisible

Invisible Ah to fly Like Superman And save the day once more Or X-Ray rescue captives As I laser-melt the door Perhaps I climb Tall towers And swing without a care Between the skyline scrapers Catching villains in a snare Or my muscles flex In latex City restoration is the goal; As I zoom around in vehicles like Some dark knight of the soul A metal suit Protects me While my heart burns like the sun With my cape-less banter shielding Vulnerabilities, every one The years behind have taught me.. That heroic can be small No need to spin the planet Or smash right through the wall Instead, it is in wisdom; The timeless gentle start Of the smile that lights the shadows On the dark side Of a heart No need to be invisible Why not let your shadow fall On the desperate, lonely stranger We start with one And save them all.
