When I was
A young boy,
My father

Took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said,

"Son when
You grow up,
Would you be

The savior of the broken,
The beaten and the damned?"
He said

"Will you
Defeat them,
You demons,

And all the non believers,
The plans that they have made?
Because one day

I'll leave you,
A phantom
To lead you in the summer,

To join the black parade."

When I was,

A young boy
My father, took me into the city
To see a marching band

He said, "Son when you grow up,
will you be the savior of the broken,
the beaten and the damned?"


Sometimes I get the feeling, she's watching over me
And other times I feel like I should go

Went through it all, the rise and fall
The bodies in the streets
And when you're gone we want you all to know


We'll carry on, We'll carry on
And though you're all dead and gone believe me

Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And in my heart I can't contain it

The anthem won't explain it

A woman sends you reeling from decimated dreams

Your misery and hate will kill us all
So paint it black and take it back
Let's shout out loud and clear

Defiant to the end we hear the call

To carry on


We'll carry on,
And though you're dead and gone believe me

Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated

Your weary widow marches
On and on we carry through the fears
Oh oh oh


disappointed faces of your peers
Oh oh oh

Take a look at me 'cause I could not care at all
Do or die
You'll never make me

Because the world will never take my heart
Come and try; you'll never break me
We want it all, we want to play this part

I won't explain, or say I'm sorry
I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scar
Give a cheer, for all the broken

Listen here, because it's who we are
I'm just a man; I'm not a hero
Just a boy, whose meant to sing this song

I'm just a man; I'm not a hero
I
Don't
Care!


We'll carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone believe me
Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on

And though you're broken and defeated
Your weary widow marches on
Do or die
You'll never make me
Because the world will never take my heart

Come and try; you'll never break me
We want it all, we want to play this part
Do or die
You'll never make me
Because the world will never take my heart

Go and try; you'll never break me
We want it all, we want to play this part
We'll carry on
