What have I done?
Though I did not pull the trigger
I built the gun
That he holds in his hand
Last night I dreamed
I climbed to the top of a mountain of metal
And for miles I could see the destruction of man
I will not be the Father of Death
Darling Emily
Everything that I have done I have done for you
But it's turned out all wrong
Can I take it back?
Can I turn off this machine before it destroys
Everything I've loved?
I will find a way to make this right
I will find a way, Emily
I will not be the Father of Death
(Here we have a nice little instrumental interlude in the key of A minor, so just vamp on that)
What are you doing here?
(Let me take you away)
I'm not going anywhere
(He will be nothing when this runs its course)\
>overlapping
He will be everything /
That a man is supposed to be
If the shadow blocks out the sun
There will be light
If it stays till the sun is set
There will be light
If the sun never shows its face again
There will be light
No matter how dark this city gets
There will be...
