Ani Difranco - Superhero Lyrics
sleepwalking through the all-nite drugstore
baptized in flourescent light
i found religion in the greeting card aisle
now i know hallmark was right
and every pop song on the radio
yeah, art may imitate life
but life imitates t.v.
'cuz you've been gone exactly two weeks
two weeks and three days
and let's just say that things look different now
different in so many ways
i used to be a superhero
no one could touch me
not even myself
i somehow stumbled into
and now look at me
i am just like everybody else
if i was dressed in my best defenses
would you agree to meet me for coffee
if i did my tricks with smoke and mirrors
would you still know which one was me
if i was naked and screaming
on your front lawn
would you turn on the light and come down
screaming, there's the asshole
who did this to me
stripped me of my power
stripped me down
i used to be a superhero
no one could touch me
not even myself
you are like a phone booth
i somehow stumbled into
and now look at me
i am just like everybody else
yeah you've been gone exactly two weeks
two weeks and three days
and now i'm a different person
different in so many ways
tell me what did you like about me
don't say my strength and daring
'cuz now i think i'm at your mercy
and it's my first time for this kind of thing
i used to be a superhero
i would swoop down and save me
from myself
you are like a phone booth
that i somehow stumbled into
and now look at me
i am just like everybody else
i am worse than everybody else

“Now look at me I am just like everybody else..” Is the most depressing and scary truths I have faced.. I am lame..
your music changed my life...for the better--
This fills me with nostalgia and a longing for a time long since passed. Sigh....this album is a pure masterpiece
I live this whole XD! Anime is so totally OVERRATED!! ❤✌🏾
Two weeks and three daaaaayz
Attempting to tag +Gabbie Hanna in case thru some statistical anomaly she sees this video
Still my favorite song after all these years
TIMELESS ALBUM !!!! A TRUE MASTERPIECE !!!! I REMEMBER GETTING IT WHEN IT CAME OUT I PLAYED IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER !!! EVRYBODY WAS LIKE WHO THE FUCK IS THAT !!!!!
pig willnot me too! And same thing here... no one ever has a clue when I play her & I get in moods where all I play is her ... she is awesome
This is a great song for the current days.
you are like a phone booth <3
2 weeks and 3 days? Sounds fickle and conservative.... Christ on a stick, you have no idea what kind of damage you did to me Ani, let alone many.
.... but as a true Liberal/Collectivist, i 've let most of it go... Had I been a Conservative, would have been unhealthy...
I am a superhero, in the sense that I can arrest conservatism at it's source...
Conservatism kills.. is the source of the .1% and the mass shooter phenomenon
@jdefabs2112
I'm ambidextrous, left eye dominant... ...actually a good enough shot to consider guns to be cheating...
I also answered your question...
I work with academia around the world in pursuit of the next economic systems that humanity will need to survive...
I'm helping save humanity from self extinction...
Guns are cheating? Yes because if someone is breaking in my house I owe it to them to give a fair fight? Um OK . you're whole argument has been trying to discredit me,not giving any real facts saying I'm self centered,conservative, violent by nature? You have no basis for what you're saying. So you've shot a gun and are a good shot so do you want to murder people now? Probably not since I would assume you're not a heartless person. You keep missing the issue here,what I'm saying is guns don't make you as violent person and guns can be used for self defense just as easily as for Ill purpose. I'm very far from being violent,you don't have to believe me ,I mean if you're so convinced that based on me being pro gun that you know me inside and out well I can't tell you not to have you're opinion but if you were a bit more open minded and less self centered you might see that you're not the only good person and just because I don't have the means to travel the world doesn't mean I don't care, there's a limit to what I can do monetarily so I'm not uncaring as much as low income. Its fine,in my opinion if all my life lacks is money then that's not the worst thing. I just don't see how you don't see your own hypocrisy, you talk about caring about others yet you've proven nothing but you can try to make me look bad,is that how you help society? Forcing your beliefs and downing others opinions, trying to fit them in your stereotypes of what you think they're about? I believe freedom is the ability to do what one wants if they're not causing harm or infringing on someone else,I'm not doing either of those things,and on a small scale I do what I can to help people out ,even people who I don't know ,so maybe consider being more humble ,not everyone has the time and money to save the world but every little bit helps.
ITS LIKE THIS IF IT COMES DOWN TO THEM OR ME IT WILL B THEM EVERY TIME !!!! SIMPLE SURVIVAL !!! NO REGRETS
i hate you i love her :(
IM GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU
what are the odds of finding this disc on the side of the road day's after a nasty break up? it happened to me years ago .i never heard of her but this ended up being one of my most liked cd's.and memorable .
I have all the cds ;)
immrnoidall one of her best albums
I love this story so much
Was on my suggested this morning, the morning after being dumped by someone im still completely in love with me. He admits it was a mistake but we remain broken up. I feel shattered
Lets jus say things look so different now
