Lyrics Unrest in the House of Light - The Protomen

Unrest in the House of Light

Dr. Light: You have heard me tell this story
Many times before you sleep
This time listen carefully
And I will tell you once again
But this time understand that what I’m telling you,
Every single word is true.
You need to know.
There was another who came before you
He was a hero and your brother and my son.
He fought the darkness, and the darkness won.
And he fought bravely, and he died bravely
But he was forsaken by the ones he wished to save.
And when he died he died in vain.
You need to know.
You are not him.
A time is coming, and I must warn you
Though it’s something that you may not understand
They can’t be saved by just one man.
And I am sorry, because I was wrong
And I’d take away the weight his shoulders had to bear.
Because when he fell I was the only one that cared.
You need to know.
You are not him.
His fight’s not yours.
Megaman broke away from his father’s hold, ran to the window and looked out
over the city.
His eyes filled with tears.
His heart hurt under the weight of
what he’d just been told.
How could his father do nothing?
How could Dr.
Light not avenge the death of Protoman?
That story’s finished.
That story’s ended.
Understand there’s nothing more that we can do.
And I will not risk losing you.
For if you leave now, you will be fighting
for a people that refuse to comprehend
They have chosen their own end.
So you will stay here.
You will obey me.
And I will keep grieving for the son I sent to death.
You are all that I have left.
You need to know.
You are not him.
This fight’s not yours.
Megaman tore past Dr. Light.
He threw the doors open at the end of the hallway
and disappeared into the stairway.
Light called after him:
You cannot win!
