Superhero

If i was a superhero I wonder
Could I save you from yourself?
Seeing you lost in yourself I wonder
Would tights and a cape help,
Or if I had extrasensory power.
Swimming behind your eyes like a goldfish I see
You sending a bat signal to me
And i I had a trident I could reel you in
Like Ahab harpooning a whale.
if I heard the words behind your words
Would I then have a map to where you are?
I would follow the clew
That would bring me to you
If I was a superhero.
