A música Kryptonite foi escrita pelo vocalista Brad Arnold quando ele tinha apenas 15 anos, como parte de um trabalho para sua aula de matemática. A canção se tornou um dos maiores sucessos da banda 3 Doors Down e fala sobre lealdade e amizade, trazendo uma metáfora de super-heróis para explorar esses temas.
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.
