Welcome To The Black Parade
Halflives
When I was a young girl, my father
Took me into the city to see a marching band
He said: Girl, 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
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
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 scars
Give a cheer for all the broken
Listen here, because it's who we are
I'm just a man, you're not a hero
Just a girl, who had to sing this song
I'm just a man, you're 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 in my heart I can't contain it
The anthem won't explain it
