There is a swelling storm
Peter felt it getting bad again
And I'm caught up in the middle of it all
He was doing so many things, but he felt like he was just standing in the middle of an endless nothingness
And it takes control
The nothingness was slowly swallowing him
Of the person that I thought I was
What he did, what he felt
The boy I used to know
He remembered how it was before, it was good before, but before that, it was worse than now
But there is a light
The boy knew he just had to find the straight to pull himself out of this
In the dark, and I feel its warmth
He had to find the straight to get back to it being good
In my hands and my heart
He knew he could, he had done it all before
Why can't I hold on?
But never for too long
It comes and goes in waves
His life was a circle of good and bad
It always does, always does
His parents died
We watch as our young hearts fade
But he got May and Ben
Into the flood, into the flood
Ben died
The freedom of falling
But he found MJ and Ned
A feeling I thought was set in stone
And he had thought that life had finally given him enough bad
It slips through my fingers
But May was gone
I'm trying hard to let go
He tried to hold on to his friends, and Mr. Stark
It comes and goes in waves
And it was great hanging out with Mr. Stark, working in the lab, watching movies
It comes and goes in waves
But then the warehouse fell on him and the nightmares came back, so did the panic attacks
And carries us away
Now he was sitting on top of a building, waiting for Karen to announce another crime
Through the wind
He wanted to think that there was no reason for him being spider-man, but this had happened before and he just reminded himself that he had to push through it.
Down to the place we used to lay when we were kids
But what was the point? all of his family had died and he couldn't do anything about it
Memories of a stolen place
He remembered hugging his dad so tight, the warmth he had never felt after his death
Caught in the silence
The memories of his mother's smile that he will never see again
An echo lost in space
Of Ben ruffling his hair and May cooking dinner
It comes and goes in waves
He didn't want to focus on it; he wanted to focus on MJ and Ned joking around and Mr. Stark calling him 'kid'
It always does, it always does
But the memories of his lost ones kept coming back
We watch as our young hearts fade
Memories of their deaths, and how he knew that if he would have been better or stronger they would be alive right now
Into the flood, into the flood
How maybe if he hadn't gotten into an argument with Ben, his uncle would still be here
The freedom of falling
The boy screamed. He screamed for all of the memories he couldn't erase and all of the feelings that wouldn't disappear.
A feeling I thought was set in stone
Peter jumped off the building and felt the wind blow in his teary eyes
It slips through my fingers
He shot the web just in time to catch himself
I'm trying hard to let go
It wasn't smart thinking about letting go of the web, but if he wasn't here he could be with his family
It comes and goes in waves
But he had thought this before
It comes and goes in waves
And he never really did it
And carries us away
So he swang to the next crime scene and fought like usually did, only without commenting his opponent
I watched my wild youth
This just made him remember the play fights he would have with Ben
Disappear in front of my eyes
But the memories vanished from his eyes when he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. The pain was enormous and he stopped fighting. He knew he wouldn't heal from this one.
Moments of magic and wonder
At this moment he only could think about what was he leaving behind
It seems so hard to find
He was leaving behind the handshake they and Ned had created
Is it ever coming back again?
He was leaving behind MJ calling him a loser
Is it ever coming back again?
He was leaving behind being Spider-man
Take me back to the feeling when
He was leaving behind working on their suits and eating cheese-burgers with Mr. Stark
Everything was left to find
Funny, how he could only think of what was bad in a situation
It comes and goes in waves
At that moment he came to an understanding with what had happened to him. he was okey.
It always does, oh it always does
Okey, with what he had gained and okey with what he had lost
And the freedom of falling
There were tears in his eyes
A feeling I thought was set in stone
But a smile on his face
It slips through my fingers
And all of the good and all of the bad
I'm trying hard to let go
It was seen in his face as he looked at the skies
It comes and goes in waves
All the good and all the bad he had gone through
It comes and goes in waves
All the good and all the bad he had seen
And carries us away
It was all okey
