Superior

[Verse 1]
Here lies Otto Octavius
Dead and reborn
Here lies Peter Parker
But still it's unknown
'cause Spider-man
Still survives and he still fights crime
But I don't think he's the same
As he was before
Something different in his tone
And the way that he walks
And the way he fights the criminals
Something is off
There's a glide in his step
And a gleam in his eye
Here's a man who seems
Like he's having his first time
In the lime-light
So people can tell him
Where that old man was so unwelcome
Peter Parker is let in
From the beautiful women to the loving fans
To the people who expect more with open hands
It's a new Spider-man for the new age now
You can marvel at his feats and just watch how
He hangs upside down and approaches with a scowl
Something's about to go down

[Chorus]
They say the better man won
Superiority
I don't believe that
You know it's me
The same Peter Parker that you know so well
Sometimes I find it's hard to tell

They say the better man won
Superiority
I don't believe that
You know it's me
The same Peter Parker that you know so well
Well sometimes it's hard to tell

[Verse 2]
Gun to the head so he can never kill again
That's a catch 22 my friend
Because it's like
To prevent a death
Well you gotta create one
And how different are you
From the ones that make some
Power
It brings responsibility
Not just superior ability
Mental agility
There's something more to being a hero
Than fighting crime
There's something more to being a villain
Than doing time
The mask stays on like all through the night
Even when you stare him straight in his eyes
And ya learn that good is its own reward
And eventually all dirt will be exposed to the light
A memory
A face
A kind word
The stakes
That one kid you saved
That one saving grace
At the end of the day
That ya left the world a better place
Than it was when you started out
Listen now

[Chorus]
They say the better man won
Superiority
I don't believe that
You know it's me
The same Peter Parker that you know so well
Sometimes i find it's hard to tell

They say the better man won
Superiority
I don't believe that
You know it's me
The same Peter Parker that you know so well
Well sometimes it's hard to tell

[Verse 3]
Here lies Peter Parker
His voice I still hear
Here lies Otto Octavius
Though something is weird
How he only muttered the name of Parker
As he left
As his last breath crept out his mouth and death
They say what makes the hero
Makes the villain
And that thing that makes the hero
The hero is something within
It's not given
It's not taken
It's blessed on those
Who do more than wear spandex clothes
Yes we all know how that spider bit him
And that pro wrestling match
And yes the story's a given
But how Uncle Ben died that one fateful night
He vowed to never let crime go un-forgiven
So let us not always recognize not how great ya fight
Or how strong ya tight
It's how great your heart
And how much you try
Peter Parker man we miss you some nights
Right?
