When I was a young boy, my father took me into 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 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 you're 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's 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
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!
You'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
Because the world, will never take my heart
(We'll carry on!)
Go and try, you'll never break me (we'll carry on!) we want it all, we wanna play this part
(We'll carry on!)
