My whole life was built
On looking up to you
In my eyes everything
You did was perfect
The faith I had in you
Helped me conquer
My own fears
Bigger than the universe
Faster than superman
Thought I painted the right
Picture of you in my mind
As time is the enemy of
Things that don't last forever
I begun to see the speck
In your eyes
The hole in your shirt
The skeletons in your closet
And it all came together
Making a complete confection
Of who I thought you'd never be
The glass of milk spelt and splattered
on the floor
But there was none left in the fridge
To refill what has been lost
I tried to bring the pieces back together
Because I knew it was all up to me now
Standing on my own
I built a strong foundation
With walls made of gold
But no roofings
The rain would pour right through
As time is a friend to things
That give experience and knowledge
I begun to see the how clean
Your shoes have always been
And how am not man enough to
Walk in your shoes
I realized when the sun sets
The morning isn't so far away
in spite of the good and bad in you
I realized that you are the greatest
Man to have walked the earth
Without the speed of superman
Without being bigger than the universe
