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 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,

Will 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 street

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

Oh, Oh, ohhh

Disappointed faces of your peers

Oh, Oh, ohh

Take a look at me

Cos 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 make me

(We'll carry on.)

We want it all, we wanna play this part

(We'll carry on.)
