I dedicate this song to my dad he has dementia, and it kills me seeing him suffer through this. And even though he has this disease he tries very hard to show us that he’s OK so if you’re reading this, please say prayer for my dad. God bless you all.

I believe that I, myself are quite possibly it the early stages of this malady at 47yo. In my youth, high school, and unversity years, I had NO trouble spelling complex words, actually winning regional and placing in state spelling bees. On some really bad days, you guys reading this would think me to be typing some foreign language. If not some form of dimentia, I'm thinking possibly cte brought on from years of combat sports. I've not told anyone around me this, for fear of changing the way they see me....don't know, guys.... suggestion?

@@dullahan7677 If it's CTE you're in a bad place and gonna have to figure some major stuff out, but if it's early onset Alzheimer's or dementia, you should check out some of the new research they've been doing linking bacterial infections to those two. Could always just be the natural effects of getting old and pushing the envelope with your body too bro.

Every decade has a song like this that makes you look back fondly at that decade, and remember what was good "back then". You may not think so at the time, because you're living in the present, but this song (and those like it) attaches itself to and makes memories that are worth remembering.

I've been there. There's plenty of new medications out there now that can get her off the dope without going through withdrawals. Would she consider a methadone clinic to start with? I went from methadone to Suboxone, and that worked for me. Cold turkey withdrawals were too painful and long lasting. Try to get her on a program. You both have my prayers.

I can’t help but think of Christopher Reeve’s great portrayal of my favorite superhero growing up, then all his bravery and all his struggles after he was paralyzed in that accident, and the other hero, his wife, that stood by his side, cared for him until the very end. And joined him in death, just a few months after he passed away, even though she was a healthy 44 year old woman. She died of a broken heart. RIP Christopher and Dana Reeve, you’re both heros

yes, love is strong and dying of a broken heart is a real scientifically proven death - in a way the heart is like our emotional brain and this song tugs at the heart strings. When superman soared on the screen my heart swelled with joy, even as it does with simple things like watching spring leaves unfold on the tree outside the window or playing music with others. The fear and anger in the world cannot quench the love in the human heart.

All grown up, honor student. Can't be more blessed than this. I am confident you will do well in your journey becoming a man. I will always be with you and love you. My eyes through yours, Son becomes the father and the father becomes the sun." One of his favorite lines from the Superman movies. I'll always love him, and I wish you lots of luck

I first listened to this song at 15, my father was driving his car. I remember I was in the backseat, just chilling and trying to see sights. Now I'm 23, and it's still meaningful and wholesome. It takes me back to those times that I was carefree, no jobs to look forward to. It makes me happy.

At 66 years old, with all the lives I've lived, all the loves I've lost and gained, all the children I've raised, all the friends and family that have passed beyond the veil--this song still resonates. Just as poignant as it was the first time it played on my radio, so many years ago. It's not easy, but it is worth it.

I believe this song really speaks to men of my generation - men who were told to always be strong, to never cry, to be a rock for our families, and - above all - never ask others for help. So... Sometimes I listen to this song in the driveway, and the lyrics make me realize that at least one person knows how I feel. Then, when the piano fades, I wipe my tears, put on a smile, and go inside to kiss my wife and hug my kids.

Love this song, I can definitely relate to it being a care giver to my autistic Grandson - It ain’t easy being me! I also enjoy rescuing animal shelter pets and that takes a toll on a person when you see so many beautiful animals looking for homes (in shelters) that will be killed- those relinquished , or stray animals, -because there is not enough space to put all of them so they are euthanized and thrown into a black leaf bag 😢 all because people did not spay or neuter their pet

If everything was stripped away if I was left broke and alone, what could I look back on and be proud of. Nothing. From here on, I vow to be different. No more lies, no more masks, no more capes, just me; honest, apologetic, and true.

The real Superman depicted in this song is within each and everyone of us. Trying to do everything for our love ones. That no matter how hard we try to protect our love ones, trying to be strong for them ( esp. In times of great sickness and/or soldiers at war)...we have to admit that we still bleed inside. That we have the capacity to do great and even impossible things because of the love we have inside of us. A song dedicated for mothers who sacrifices their life and health just to give life to another human being. We don't have wings but we have love inside which can cross even the vast oceans or even fly way past into the moon. Salute to all who have so much in their hearts.

When I was a kid I just view this as that “superman song”. But as I grew up I realised how incredible the lyrics are; it’s about viewing the other side of a story; how superman in our mind is that perfect beacon of happiness and strength everyone wants to be- but the truth is that perhaps he never even existed. Perhaps the real superman is afraid of flying, is suffering from loneliness, is burdened by his own power, lives eternal but dies alone. Superman is a symbol of our naive way of viewing the world when we never saw pass the layers. We grew up, we failed, we made mistakes, we get rejected, battered, disappointed, we fell in love, found a family, and realised that those naive dreams are not what it seems, it’s just the way it is, it’s not easy but it’s okay.

"I can't stand to fly. I am not that naive. Just out to find the better part of me. Wish I could cry fall upon my knees. Find a way to lie about a place I will never see." I totally relate to this. This hits home as guy who has never owned anything that I can call home. If I am some hero in some way. The song reminds me even heroes get stabbed and have the right to bleed. It's not easy to be me. Listening to this song years later I still find meaning true in those words.

One day maybe, we’ll be free from all of our pain and we’ll be flying high with happiness and feeling peace inside. I wish all of you all the peace life has taken away from you and I wish you all one day, to look back at your demons and your struggles and say “It wasn’t easy, but I did it, I’m still here, I’m fine, you no longer can control me”.

hey, we don't have identical experiences and I'm sure your issues are significantly different from mine. but I do understand going through the worst issues of your life, at least up to the point of life you're experiencing, and I wanted to say that as hard as it is, relief eventually comes. Even if the initial issue sticks around in your brain and makes it hard to truly move on, you can move onto a new chapter of your life and spend years working through your initial hangups. For me, it was leaving a toxic dependant friendship with my best friend because he began dating a girl I had just spent a year confiding in him about a crush I had on her. Is it high school shit? Sure. But it fucking hurt more than just about anything. I haven't had consistent friends in my life. The fact that someone seemingly used my feelings to blow his nose into before throwing them in the bin, that was huge. And I struggled with that for years. Today, I hang out with my coworkers. I understand that my kindness is a choice. There is a Rational reaction and an Emotional reaction, and sometimes they don't align and you have to pick one. The cheat code is that if you spend too much time trying to rationalise an emotional response, you're going to realise that despite your best efforts, your emotions win. Don't torture yourself over "facts over feelings" and a need to reconcile everything. Let yourself feel whatever you need to feel. Usually, even if it's ugly and dark, you'll understand what you need to do to move forward.

My parents got me this CD when I was diagnosed with a very bad case of meningitis at 13 years old. By no means does that compare with some of the comments below, but I remember thinking I might not survive or possibly could be facing paralysis. We listened to this song together and I remember just appreciating being together and being okay that particular moment. Never forgot that.

The ending of the video really shows the true intent behind the song. You may initially relate it to just a song about Superman, but the true meaning is about being a husband and a father. As a man, you’re expected to be strong, stoic and basically a “super hero” to your family. How many of us see our dads as Superman? This song means more now than ever before, with masculinity under attack.

Lyrics : I can't stand to fly I'm not that naive I'm just out to find The better part of me I'm more than a bird, I'm more than a plane I'm more than some pretty face beside a train And it's not easy to be me I wish that I could cry Fall upon my knees Find a way to lie About a home I'll never see It may sound absurd, but don't be naive Even heroes have the right to bleed I may be disturbed, but won't you concede Even heroes have the right to dream And it's not easy to be me Up, up and away, away from me Well, it's all right, you can all sleep sound tonight I'm not crazy or anything I can't stand to fly I'm not that naive Men weren't meant to ride With clouds between their knees I'm only a man in a silly red sheet Digging for kryptonite on this one way street Only a man in a funny red sheet Looking for special things inside of me Inside of me Inside me Inside me Inside of me I'm only a man In a funny red sheet I'm only a man Looking for a dream I'm only a man In a funny red sheet And it's not easy It's not easy to be me

It's really amazing to see the different ways people relate to the song because for me as someone who's a huge fan of comic books and therefore Superman this song breaks my heart especially the part that talks about Superman dreaming of a world that he'll never see which is obviously about Krypton and how that's a whole life that he'll never know and how he carries the weight of the world and many worlds on his shoulder but he's Superman so he's expected to and it's crazy to see for me knowing how emotional that song makes me about a fictional character to see people related to their real life struggles and people in their life is truly a testament to how beautiful and powerful and magical music really is.

They divorced a year before he died and she had cheated on him a lot and the man that killed my dad was one of her boyfriends. He was shot in the stomach and bled out. It's okay to talk about now, he died 5 years ago.
