in my mind you are my friend

swinging from the buildings that pierce the sky
masked in privacy but shining of honesty
you know who I am without my mask

every night you take off your suit to mend
every night I check my suit of pretend

diving headfirst to be a part of your story
looking from a distance with so much connection
I follow you through your journey

safe from the mortalities that extend  
you save me from my villain's end

but our paths have never crossed
my thanks is the silence ringing in your ear
a ghost of the touch you will never feel

in my mind you are my friend
