You see the cape
You see the mask
You build me up to more than just a man
So I fly, imagining
I can be what I see
In your eyes
In your eyes
You need me strong
You need me brave
And here I hide
Behind the mask and shield
Still I fly, imagining
I can be what I see
In your eyes
In your eyes
The longer I remain upon a pedestal
The harder to be true
The higher that I fly into our fantasy
The further I fly from you
When the cape is torn
When the mask falls off
When the shield is dropped
Revealing just a man
When you see reality
Will I still be what I see
In your eyes
In your eyes
To let you see me fall and see me cry
Is the bravest thing to do
Because falling is where life begins
And learning to get up again
Is what a man must do
It builds the hero in you
So I fall, imagining
I'll still be what I see
So I fall, imagining
I'll still be what I see
So I fall, imagining
I'll still be what I see
In your eyes
In your eyes
So take your cape
Your mask and shield
And use them to fall wisely
