Cape Fear Lyrics by Steven S. Billings

The Journey Home

0

I ain't gonna wear no cape for you
‛Cause I ain't no Superman
I'll do the best that I can do;
It's all that one man can
I ain't gonna climb no cross for
And give up my life's blood
‛Cause it's been done
And I ain't the one
Look at that lovely baby
Bouncin' on Mama's knee
Poor little kid ain't got a clue
What he was born to be
It's gonna take him years, in fact
Before he learns to see:
Mom and Dad had this little boy
To save their family
He loves to play the hero;
It's the role that he knows best
Everybody loves him;
They all call him "blessed."
They don't even know they use him
And suck up his energy
And he don't even know he's got a weight around his soul
‛Cause he don't know no other way to be!
I ain't gonna wear no cape for you
‛Cause I ain't no Superman
I'll do the best that I can do;
It's all that one man can
I ain't gonna climb no cross for
And give up my life's blood
‛Cause it's been done
And I ain't the one
Look at that lonely husband
Wonderin' what went wrong
Poor old boy spent fifteen years
Forgettin' how to sing his song
He thought he was her savior
What she'd needed all along
He thought he could handle everything;
He thought he was that strong
He tried to be her hero;
It's the role that he knew best
He thought it would make her love him
It would feather their love-nest
But it was he who needed rescuing
From his desire to please
‛Cause he don't even know it's got a grip around his throat
And it's been there so long he loves the squeeze!
I ain't gonna wear no cape for you
‛Cause I ain't no Superman
I'll do the best that I can do;
It's all that one man can
I ain't gonna climb no cross for
And give up my life's blood
‛Cause it's been done
And I ain't the one
GUITAR SOLO
Changin' how you live
Ain't an easy thing to do
Havin' my eyes opened was a shock
That I lived through
I ain't goin' back to things
The way they used to be
Now that I am free, no cape for me
‛Cause I can't do it!
I ain't gonna wear no cape for you
‛Cause I ain't no Superman
I'll do the best that I can do;
It's all that one man can
Jesus climbed that cross for
And gave up His life's blood
Now it's all done;
He's the one
