Kryptonite

I went to clinical trials to take my powers away
Syringes, needles and vials to get from red to grey
I tore the mask from my face and I replaced it with a blank page
And I let everyone else decide the colour of my veins

I woke up strapped in a chair with neon lights overhead
Wires and tubes to contain me and to keep me fed
They got me hooked up to 808s and loops to make a heartbeat
Until my lungs had imploded and I got back to my feet

And so I found a curtain
And I spray-painted it red
And I took the covers from my bed
And I made a uniform instead
I took the antibiotics to stop the swelling in my head
And then I started to crumble

I, I cowered in corners simply to evade the fight
I, I pulled out my heart and filled it full of Kryptonite
I, I ran away into the darkness to avoid the light
I, I pulled out my heart and filled it full of Kryptonite
