-My Chemical Romance-

(Welcome to 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 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.



When 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 say you don't believe

Your memory will carry on,

we'll carry on,

until my heart I can't contain it,

the anthem wont 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,

lets shout it loud and clear.

Defiant to the end we hear the call



to carry on.

We'll carry on,

and though your 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.

You can try,

you'll never break me.

You want it all, you wanna play this part.



Won't explain, or say I'm sorry.

Im not ashamed, I'm gonna show my scar.

You're the chair, for all the broken.

Lose it here, because it's only.



I'm just a man, I'm not a hero.

Just a boy, i wanna 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 your 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.

And though you try, you'll never break me.

You want it all, you wanna play this part.



Do or die you'll never make me

Because the world will never take my heart.

You can try, you'll never break me.

You want it all you wanna play this part.
