Superhero Me from Homebound by Dehyper
Alex: The song is about frustration of not being able to do what you want or need to do. When you can’t get out of it. And frustration of achieving the ability when it is already too late.
Matvey: Superhero Me is for me the very essence of how dehyper carries out songwriting. One guitar straight punk-rock demo was reshaped into something with hints of psychedeliс, drum'n'bass, guitar solos and what not. And appeared to be as natural as it was designed this way from the very start.
Boris: I always wanted to have a proper double-guitar epic solo with a bit of synthwave vibes and here it is!
Vlad: This one's for me inseparable from the image of a car speeding along the highway through the heavy nightrain. It's cold, dark and foggy outside but there's warmth, music and hope inside.
Лёша: Эта песня о фрустрации от невозможности делать то, что хочешь или должен. Когда просто не способен выбраться. А когда становишься способен — поздно.
Матвей: Для меня Superhero Me — это квинтэссенция того, как dehyper работает над песнями. Панковская демка под одну гитару обросла психоделикой, драм-н-бейсом, гитарными соло и ещё бог знает чем. И получилось так естественно, как будто мы сразу так и задумывали.
Борис: Всегда хотелось сделать эпичное двойное соло с синт-вейв вайбом и вот оно!
Володя: Эта песня для меня неотделима от образа машины, мчащейся по шоссе сквозь ночной ливень. Снаружи холод, мрак и мгла, но внутри тепло и играет музыка и есть надежда.

Lyrics
I'm not allowed to direct my own defeat
The curtains heavy the room is blindingly lit
These legs are for retreat
And I'm a splendid runner
I'm not allowed to direct my own defeat
Superhero me
What the hell took you so long
Superhero me
I have no use of you now
You can't get infected by my disease
Do not mind my inappropriate caprice
You should laugh with ease
And I should laugh at you
You can't get infected by my disease
Superhero me
What the hell took you so long
Superhero me
I have no use of you now
