Could I? Should I?
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me
Could I? Should I?
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me
When you go
Would you have the guts to say
«I don't love you
Like I loved you Yesterday»
Mama, we're all full of lies.
Mama, we're meant for the flies.
And right now they're building a coffin your size,
Mama, we're all full of lies.
They're gonna clean up your looks
With all the lies in the books
To make a citizen out of you
Because they sleep with a gun
And keep an eye on you, son
So they can watch all the things you do
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 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.
But this time, I mean it
I'll let you know just how much you mean to me
As snow falls on desert sky
Until the end of everything
I'm trying, I'm trying
To let you know how much you mean
As days fade, and nights grow
And we go cold
I see you lying next to me
With words I thought I'd never speak
Awake and unafraid
Asleep or dead
