Web-Slinger/Hope-Bringer

I was born in the middle of the night
When I went and did the wrong thing right
Stood and watched like a spider on the wall
Doing nothing made my whole world fall
While you’re sleeping in the comfort of your bed
I’ll be swinging through the city’s hot breath
Like I’m running on an endless track
But nothing that I do will ever bring him back
Web Slinger, Hope Bringer
They call me by my name
They say I’m a sometimes hero, sometimes zero
A menace on most days
But it’s all the same, this weight, the guilt
I can’t shake
I was woken in the middle of the night
Like a firework burning in the bite
Power coursing through the river of my veins
That moment on I knew that nothing was the same
How do you go to school? How do you hold a job?
How do you find the time to save the world and still have time to love?
Sometimes the only thing to do is laugh
That’s why I always make a joke beneath the mask
Web Slinger, Hope Bringer
They call me by my name
They say I’m a sometimes hero, sometimes zero
A menace on most days
But it’s all the same, this weight, the guilt
I can’t shake

Since that night years ago
I’ve been here on my own
I’ve seen friends come and go
I’ve seen more than you know
This is what I’ve been handed
And I’ve been trying to find strength
Inner peace, never forget the words
With great power comes responsibility
I was born, I was born
I was born, I am a…

Web Slinger, Hope Bringer
I’m known by many names
And that’s okay, this weight, this gift
(Oh oh)
And that’s okay, this weight, this gift
I will take
