Lyrics of
Kryptonite

Kryptonite was written by lead vocalist Brad Arnold when he was just 15 years old, as part of a math class assignment. The song became one of 3 Doors Downs biggest hits and deals with themes of loyalty and friendship, using superhero metaphors to explore these themes.

I took a walk around the world to ease my troubled mind,
I left my body lyin somewhere in the sands of time.
I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon,
I feel there's nothin I can do, yeah.

I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon.
After all I knew it had to be somethin to do with you.
I really don't mind what happens now and then,
as long as you'll be my friend at the end.

If I go crazy then will you still call me superman.
If I'm alive and well will you be there a holdin my hand,
I'll keep you by my side with my super human might, Kryptonite.

You call me strong, you call me weak, but still your secrets I will keep.
You took for granted all the times I never let you down.
You stumbled in and bumped your head, if not for me then you'd be dead.
I picked you up and put you back on solid ground.

If I go crazy then will you still call me superman.
If I'm alive and well will you be there a holdin my hand,
I'll keep you by my side with my super human might, Kryptonite.



If I go crazy then will you still call me superman.
If I'm alive and well will you be there a holdin my hand,
I'll keep you by my side with my super human might, Kryptonite.

If I go crazy then will you still call me superman.
If I'm alive and well will you be there a holdin my hand,
I'll keep you by my side with my super human might, Kryptonite.
