The name "Superman Is Dead" was derived from Stone Temple Pilots's "Silvergun Superman". The name was modified to "Superman Is Dead" because they liked the idea that there's no such thing as a perfect, invincible person out there.
Originally stumbled together in 1995, drawn by their common love of Green Day and NOFX, their influences soon extended to the punk 'n roll genre a la Supersuckers, Living End, and Social Distortion.
SID produced their first three albums independently, with fabulous, small scale indie labels "Case 15" (1997), "Superman is Dead" (1999), "Bad Bad Bad" EP (2002). In March 2003 they finally signed with Sony Music Indonesia and released their first album under that label, "Kuta Rock City". Their second album "The Hangover Decade" was released in December 2004. Their Third album "Black Market Love" was released in March 2006. Their latest album "Angels And The Outsider" was released in February 2009.

WAKE ME UP
Superman Is Dead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I fall into the reason to have no more dreams right now
Warming flames and warming hearts
Eyes speaking without sounds
Here we are sitting side by side to keep this fight
Wake me up when I'm deadly to the world
Please tell me anything that you can't hide and I don't know
Feel something dropped on us
Promise me to put the agony out of this fight
Wake me up
Until the war is closing down
And all the road is shining bright
All loaded guns speak all regrets
We can tell the time
Break up this glass to set us free
We're no more blind to see
Wake me up when I'm deadly to the world
Let me be the one take care of you beyond the dark
Kill all my loneliness
Release me from the ice
Wake me up to hold you tight, save all my arms around
Please stay before my time's too late
Face me without your scary tears
Lonely I'm tired, always try
To answer and to take
To dream on days and nights
Fantasy...
And on and on and on
Please wake me up
