The acoustic “Superhero” from 24/7 just came on… Garrison telling me: we are ten years old, and we are holding our breath under water. ear drums bursting from the pressure; we can touch the bottom. won’t you come away with me? we are flying high, and we are airplanes today; we can do anything. and i don’t ever want to leave the stage, i am a superhero these days. i don’t ever want to leave my age. i am a superhero these days.
I hope she still feels that, because she really is. Meanwhile, in the “Peter wants to be a superhero” category, can i please be this boy? Granted, i’m not pissy and depressed enough to be nearly as captivating as he is, and although i’ve got much better hair than he does i’m not nearly as otherworldly and elfish. Of course, good hair is as good a place to start as any…
