[Verse]
The sun went down on another perfect day
Busy countin' shadows on the wall
The weeds are swallowing up the flower bed

There ain't no superheroes, they're underground
Happy ever after, countin' down to zero hour
There ain't no superheroes now
There ain't no superheroes, they're underground
Happy ever after, countin' down to zero hour
