My Chemical Romance-Welcome To The Black Parade 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 saviour 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 saviour 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 world that 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 it 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
Ooh oh ohhhh
Disappointed faces of your peers
Ooh oh ohhhh
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
We want it all, we wanna 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
We want it all, we wanna play this part (We`ll carry on)

Do or die, you`ll never make me (We`ll carry on)
Because the world will never take my heart (We`ll carry on)
Go and try, you`ll never break me (We`ll carry)
We want it all, we wanna play this part (We`ll carry on)
