Lyrics

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?
Your 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
Would 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
And 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 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 and 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
Go and try, you'll never break me
You want it all, you 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 who had 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
Go and try, you'll never break me
You want it all
We'll carry on
You 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
You want it all
We'll carry on
You want to play this part.
