-MEGAMAN/(PROTOMAN)-
I will not fight you (You have no choice)
I'll stand beside you (I stand alone)
You're still their hero (Then they are fools)
This cannot be the only way (You will see...)
They don't deserve this (When this is through)
Now more than ever (Mankind will fall)
We are their hope (They would not stand)
They know no better (They would not fight)
They are not ready (They never will)
Even now there is hope for man (My father's words?)
Your father loved you (He still believes?)
His heart was broken (His only weakness)
His greatest strength (Now we shall see...)
You are not evil (...if they will stand)
You are not broken (...beside their hero!)
We both know they'll never fight! (You finally get it.)
(There are no heroes. Mankind is doomed.)
(You will never have another hero! You will never have another chance! You will fall, because you never tried to stand for yourselves!)
-(CHOIR)-
(Destroy him!
You can save us! (+Destroy him!)
You're our only hope! (+ Destroy him!)(+You can save us!)
Kill Protoman!)
-PROTOMAN-
If these people... Tell this story...
...To their children... As they sleep...
...Then maybe someday... They'll see a hero...
...Is just a man... Who knows he's free...
-(CHOIR)/MEGAMAN-
(He could not save himself.)
(How could he save us?)
(For all the blood he shed) And as I live
(Your brother failed us) There is no evil that will stand
(There's nothing you could do) And I will finish
(You had no choice) What was started
(Why do you cry for him?) The fight of Protoman!
(You are our hero.)
(You are our hero!)
You are the dead.
(We are the dead!) ((x10))
I will not fight you (You have no choice)

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
I'm confused, in some of the transcribed lyrics that I've found online theres an entire verse following "You are the dead!" and before the chorus of "We are the dead" which describes Megaman walking away from the crowd and allowing them to be slaughtered by Wiley, but I don't hear this verse at all in the CD version. Is this a live performance or another source that it's coming from? It seems like crucial story information, why was it omitted?
