Who Do You Think You Are

Who do you think you are? 
Are you Superman? 
Faster than a speeding bullet 
Can’t think of anything 
That can slow you down 
Not willing to let others in
From the pain you have had before 
Talk too few 
Hide from most 
Who do you think you are? 
A shadow in the night 
Easily looked over 
Not wanting to shed 
Even a single tear 
Having a wall built up 
Wanting someone to tear it down 
But not saying how 
Who do you think you are? 
Are you superman? 
Because if so 
I'm your kryptonite
I'll be there for you 
Let me in 
Someone who loves you 
When the pain comes back again 
To hold you when you cry 
Tear down your wall
So baby you know ill be there 
To catch you when you fall
