I Don't Have Super Powers

Nicolas Chamillet

Compositor: Nicolas Chamillet

Every time I look up at the sky
I always ask myself if I'm doing it wrong
Why do all my successes turn into mistakes
If I could change, maybe I'd already be in line

All the judgments disguised as compliments
All the existential crises I've had with Twitter
I could write a thousand page book
I could cry an entire ocean

I don't have super powers, I don't have super powers
I don't have super powers, I don't have super powers
Powers, powers, powers, powers, super powers

And if I could have
I would certainly have the power of invisibility
To hide from the words that hurt and create wounds
And if I could have a power
It would be the power of the mind, so I could know what they think
And change everything about me to fit in
The shame is that I don't have super powers

It's really cool to make people not eat
Why does she need to change her body so much
At every party, everywhere
I see a better version of myself that I could be
But I never will be, because changing leads to time
And I'm not willing to change everything about me

And all the words that once hurt me
Will still hurt, a lot, a lot, a lot
And everything that I ever try to change
Will still be bad, bad, bad

I don't have super powers, I don't have super powers
I don't have super powers, I don't have super powers
Powers, powers, powers, powers, super powers

And if I could have
I would certainly have the power of invisibility
To hide from the words that hurt and create wounds
And if I could have a power
It would be the power of the mind, so I could know what they think
And change everything about me to fit in
The pity is that I don't have super powers

I don't have super powers, I don't have super powers
I don't have super powers, I don't have super powers
Powers, powers, powers, powers, super powers
