We believed in love, when love wasn't an option 

She wanted to give birth, I wanted adoption 

After days and days of conversation, we decided to go with fertilization 

Then came baby showers and lamaze classes, 2am phone calls, one minute contractions 

But then they wisked me away like Brigadoon, no domestic partners in the delivery room 



But if I was a superhero I would break free 

Wouldn't need anyone to come and save me 

And you couldn't make me, feel like I'm crazy 

I would see my baby, I would see my baby 



And if I was a superhero I would break free 

And I wouldn't be in prison wherever you take me 

I would change everyone that's trying to change me 

I would see my baby, I would see my baby 



Life in an occupied land is hard, we pushed harder 

Soon to be a mom, him to be a father 

Boys with guns at the checkpoint and brothel 

Wouldn't let me pass when I said I need a doctor 

I don't know the source of the passport errors 

Or how four hours produced a miscarriage 

But when it comes to populations too disparaged 

Gaza's on the list, right below gay marriage 



But if I was a superhero I would break free 

Wouldn't need anyone to come and save me 

And you couldn't make me, feel like I'm crazy 

I would see my baby, I would see my baby 



And if I was a superhero I would break free 

And I wouldn't be in prison wherever you take me 

I would change everyone who's trying to change me 

I would see my baby, I would see my baby 



There's something on my heart, there's someone on my mind 

I never would have thought that I could be so angry, 

but please give me the patience, please give me the patience 



There's something on my heart, there's someone on my mind 

I never would have thought that I could be so angry, 

but please give me the patience, please give me the patience 



But if I was a superhero I would break free 

Wouldn't need anyone to come and save me 

And you couldn't make me, feel like I'm crazy 

I would see my baby, I would see my baby 



Yeah if I was a superhero I would break free 

And I wouldn't be in prison wherever you take me 

I would change everyone who's trying to change me 

I would see my baby, I would see my baby 



Yeah if I was a superhero I would break free 

And I wouldn't be in prison wherever you take me 

I would change everyone who's trying to change me 

I would see my baby, I would see my baby
