Superhero Lyrics

All alone again
Searching for something
There's no one left to save me now
I won't be afraid
I just thought you'd catch me
but you're not here to save me now
I've had my share of criminals
and you're no different from them all

I need a superhero
Cause I am just a girl
I have no one who will go
and save me from this world
Get me a superhero (save me)
Cause I am just a girl
I know, cause you're no superhero

What did I expect
I thought you'd help me
but I was crushed and beaten down
Yeah I've had my share of criminals
and you're no different from them all

I need a superhero
Cause I am just a girl
I have no one who will go
and save me from this world
Get me a superhero (save me)
Cause I am just a girl
I know, cause you're no superhero

I'm hanging on the edge of the world
I'm clutching to a string
and my life is crumbling down

I need a superhero, someone to save me (x2)

I need a superhero (save me)
Cause I am just a girl
and I have no one who will go
and save me from this world
Get me a superhero (save me)
Cause I am just a girl
I know, cause you're no superhero

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Love this song! As for the meanings, I guess it's pretty simple, a girl wants a nice guy to be with, but everyone of them turns out to be just another jerk.
