about

After I saw The Amazing Spider-Man 2 I was emotionally exhausted. I've never been so moved by a film before or by the *spoiler alert* loss of a fictional character. I decided to write about what happens in the film and turn it into a song. I decided to write about the events involving Gwen and Peter from Peters perspective, and what happens to them and their relationship at the end of the movie. I just recorded it in my room with a crappy recorder, but I plan on going to a studio and re-doing it soon! I really enjoyed writing this, hopefully you enjoy listening

lyrics

I made a promise that I can't keep
But the death of your father still haunts me in my sleep
He made me say that I'd stay away from you so you'd be okay
And now this vision seems to be imprinted in the webs we weave that involve you and me
I'm trying so hard to stay as far as I can from you even though it's breaking my heart
But

I promise to always protect you
And we will pull through like we always do
I promise to always protect you
And we will pull through like we always do

You said that this is the final time
You can't do this anymore, yeah, you made up your mind
We'll just go our own ways, But if that means you'll stay safe
I'll grit my teeth and I will walk away
But I see you on the street with the rooftops beneath my feet
I hope you live your life, I'll try to deal with mine
But I can't let go, If it's you I'll follow
We can leave the city because I love you and that's all I know

I promise to always protect you
And we will pull through like we always do
I promise to always protect you
And we will pull through like we always do

"No, why did you follow? You have to leave!"
But then you fell from the towers top and I could not believe
The gears and rubble
Surrounding you, falling hundreds of feet
And as you lay in my arms I begged you to please breathe
Ands now all I see
Every season, Every god damn week
Is a gravestone that reads "Gwendolyn Stacy"
And I'm starting to think that you would have been happy if you never met me
You would have been free

And I promised to always protect you
But I let you fall to the bottom of the room
And I promised to always protect you
What did I do? What did I do?

And I promised to always protect you
But I let you fall to the bottom of the room
And I promised to always protect you
What did I do? What did I do?

And I promised to always protect you
But I let you fall to the bottom of the room
And I promised to always protect you
What did I do? What did I do?
