watch me and stay close beside
so hopelessly waiting to close my eyes
and hold me now because it's after me
just waiting for my last breath
vague distant holes in my memory
the nightside I'm drifting so far away
the words that I'm speaking come haltingly
the air that I'm breathing tastes sulfuric
deep inside me
deep inside my fortress
feeling is lost with my memory
I'll work my way back to what it means
it's far too late to trace my steps back again
the thoughts petrifying because
the spider man is after me
fading hope of familiar recognition
I build a castle made of arms crossed and breathless?
watch me turn things around
turn them on their head!
the nightside is where I'm drifting
this place is a lie I'm believing
to live with myself
to ease the strain
release the brain
it's all I want
bleeding the vein
so hopelessly waiting to close my eyes
and hold me now because it's after me
just waiting for my last breath
the nightside I'm drifting so far away
the words that I'm speaking come haltingly
the air that I'm breathing tastes sulfuric
deep inside my fortress
I'll work my way back to what it means
it's far too late to trace my steps back again
the thoughts petrifying because
the spider man is after me
I build a castle made of arms crossed and breathless?
turn them on their head!
this place is a lie I'm believing
to live with myself
to ease the strain
release the brain
it's all I want
bleeding the vein

Can someone explain the Spider Man reference?
in the cd lyrics its capitalized
i've always heard the Spider Man reference is used the same way that Robert Smith uses it. could be wrong.
