about

This is more of an angry song. It's about helping people and giving to people but no one giving anything back when you need it.

lyrics

I’m not gonna weep for you
I’m not gonna pull you through
It’s not my job to be your anchor, to step on in and calm your anger
When is someone gonna be my super hero
When is someone gonna be my super hero?

Verse 1
I can hear you crying from the next room over
It’s like this every night when you can’t stay sober
When has the drink ever helped before,
All it does is bring you harder to the floor
But I’ve told you that time and time again

Chorus
I’m not gonna weep for you
I’m not gonna pull you through
It’s not my job to be your anchor, to step on in and calm your anger
I’m not gonna run to you
When its not you who sees me through
It’s not my job to be your savior, to step on in and do a favor
When is someone gonna be my super hero
When is someone gonna be my super hero?

Bridge
Call me selfish call me blunt
But I’m tired of being the one
You call when you’re in pieces
But where are you when I face my demons
I’m tired of being the car ride home
But where are you when I’m all alone
