Cannot trust you parents
Cannot trust yourself
Put the things that matter
Way up on the shelf
Become the kind of person 
That can get you out of here 
Push down all the violence 
Push down all the fear 

We all know that story
Isn't even true
We all know that person
Isn't really you
There's no real armor
No cape of red and blue
Pretty faces crack under the light
Pretty faces crack under the light
Pretty faces crack under the light 

How could they have done those
Things they did to you
You were just a child then
Innocent and new
There's no making sense of
The workings of this world
There's no bringing back now
That happy boy or girl

We all know that story
Isn't even true
We all know that person
Isn't really you
There's no real armor
No cape of red and blue
Super heroes sleep alone at night
Super heroes sleep alone at night
Super heroes sleep alone at night

Up up and away 
Up up and away 
Up up and away
Up up and away 
Up up and away 
Up up and away

Now you are a parent
Children of your own
Underneath the roses
You feel all alone
Thorns along your rib cage
Thorns along your scalp
You think people your age
Shouldn't have to ask for help

We all know the reason
We all know the rhyme
We all know that treason
Makes more sense than dying 
There's no real honor
In fading out of sight
Painful secrets crack under the light 
Painful secrets crack under the light 
Painful secrets crack under the light 

Up up and away 
Up up and away 
Up up and away
