Verse 1:
Swinging through the city, New York in my view, in my mind, no track of time in my young eyes. Catching bad guys, shooting webs to save the world, from bed to floor and out the door. I was the hero of thousands from the comfort of my own home.
I blinked too fast, forward to a spider without the man, an insect and a pest to my own demise, a bug and nuisance, knock me down to size. Let me fall, leave me to crawl, like a spider should do, a boy come of age whose outgrown the suit, undeserved, hit a nerve, god honest truth! Peter Park wouldn't even take the time to wipe me off his shoe!
Verse 2:
Was once solving crime, yet now I'm just criminal, both toes on the line, but now I'm just cynical. Crisp suit, matching hat, bringing justice to the masses, cases closed, no average joe, all promotions were fast tracked! High strung, tense, and a little more cautious, but now I'm grown without the man, with a heart full of violence. Where's my cell? When's my trial? Hand me my life sentence. take the keys, there's no pleas, I accept my penance! LA dreaming, now addiction feening, I'm a fiend without freedom. Get some help, fuck yourself! "sorry, I didn't mean it, I swear I'll get honed in!", is just a ruse, my excuse to get heated in the heat of moment. Once went by Phelps, but since checked out, just a hasbeen detective and a 5 star disappointment!
Bridge: (×2)
Nostalgic man because of my age, but have no plan to come of age. Imma live through my suits hanging in the back of my closet. Too grown to fit them, too immature to fit in. Just wanna go back in time where my innocence wasn't second best. Damn, accidentally pulled out one of my skeletons.
Outro:
Time to put it back, right next to my "costumes," because playing pretend got me running on fumes in a car I'm tired of driving, living in the past while connected to sirius. Trust me, you don't wanna see a grown man crying, like a fucking clown. Take a joke! "Why so serious?"
Nostalgia is all that's left of me, feeding my darkest knights, it leaves me barely holding onto this life. Looking in the sky, I see the shining light, reminding me that I'M BATtered and broken...and will never be a man, I think I've lost focus.

Hey everyone! I'm new to Songbay, and just trying to get started to see if my lyrics can resonate with anyone who sings, produces, or writes music of their own. I really have no experience when it comes to song writing aside from just writing lyrics in my free time when they come to mind. I'm open to constructive criticism and any advice anyone may have!
