or anything

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
i'm more than some pretty face beside a train

i wish that i could cry (no need to wish)
fall upon my knees (been there)
find a way to lie (don't do this)
about a home i'll never see (i'll see it someday)

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

up, up and away, away from me
well it's alright
you can all sleep sound tonight
i'm not crazy or anything

i'm only a man in a silly red sheet
digging for kryptonite on this one way street
i'm only a man in a funny red sheet
looking for special things inside of me

i'm only a man
i'm only a man looking for a dream
and it's not easy…
