I can't stand to fly

I'm not that naive

I'm just out to find

The better part of me



I'm more than a bird... I'm more than a plane

More than some pretty face beside a train

It's not easy to be me



Wish that I could cry

Fall upon my knees

Find a way to lie

About a home I'll never see



It may sound absurd... But don't be naive

Even heroes have the right to bleed

I may be disturbed... But won't you concede

Even heroes have the right to dream

It's not easy to be me



Up, up and away... Away from me

It's all right... You can all sleep sound tonight

I'm not crazy... Or anything



I can't stand to fly

I'm not that naive

Men weren't meant to ride

With clouds between their knees



I'm only a man in a silly red sheet

Digging for Kryptonite on this one way street

Only a man in a silly red sheet

Looking for special things inside of me

Inside of me

Inside of me

Yeah, inside of me

Inside of me



I'm only a man

In a funny red sheet

I'm only a man

Looking for a dream



I'm only a man

In a funny red sheet

And it's not easy, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm...



It's not easy to be me
