A thin red thread across the skyline
Looking down on the avenue
Just a kid behind a mask of fabric
Trying to do what he has to do
He hears the sirens in the distance
calling
He catches every single soul that's
falling
With great power comes the weight of the world
Spinning webs over rivers and stone
He is the guardian of
every quiet street
But he walks the high wire all alone
Just a shadow on the brickwork
Running fast through the cold night air
Leaving keys for the city limits But
there's nobody waiting there
He hears the sirens in the distance
calling
He catches every single soul that's
falling
With great power comes the weight of the world
Spinning webs over rivers and stone
He is the guardian of
every quiet street
But he walks the high wire all alone
And the city
is a canvas painted blue
Every shadow has a name he once knew
Sometimes the mask
is the only thing that's true
With great power comes the weight of the world
Spinning webs over rivers and stone
He is the guardian of
every quiet street
But he walks the high wire all alone
Just a shadow... Spun in the dark... (ahhhh)
