*Verse 1 (Ryan)
I’m tired and thin
Haven’t slept since the war
I’m a mess of wounded skin
like a wine sack that’s been torn
in the sacred space
Behind the lids of my eyes
Mad-Eye darkly holds my gaze
And I can still see Fredrick’s laughing face
*Chorus (Mark)
It’s not enough
To say that time
Can mend my wings
That one day I’ll fly
And it’s not enough
This acheless scar
Some wounds are still burning
Let me live as one earning his life
*Break (Luke)
And we all fall down
And we all fall down
Behind the lids of my eyes
I can still see Fredrick’s laughing face
Far away
And I can still see Fredrick’s laughing face
*Chorus (MoMoM)
It’s not enough (not enough)
To say that time (say that time)
Can mend my wings (mend my wings)
That one day I’ll fly (one day I’ll fly)
It’s not enough (not enough)
This acheless scar (acheless scar)
Some wounds are still burning (wounds are still burning)
Let me live as one earning his life (earning his life)
Darkest nights turn into dawns
Golden lights are chords for songs of love
Something death cannot erase
why fredrick not fred
Probably goes better with the beat
It worked better with the song’s rhythm and beat. I’m about to start a Wrock band myself, so I know what that’s like.
probably so it fills the syllable quota, I dunno though
LOVE this song so much :]
Probably because they thought it fit better. Fred was probably short for Fredrick anyway.
Because it kept with the beat.
This song is amazing. Truly, it reflects what Harry and really everyone felt after the war. The epilogue showed nineteen years later in a happy setting, but I imagine many of the people would be tortured by horrid memories and losses for the rest of their lives, especially Harry, Hermione, and the Weasleys. Especially Harry; he realised a lot of things that night that would make many people very, very angry at themselves.I. E. Harry hating Snape when really he sacrificed himself almost completely for Harry.
I agree. Harry has all the right to cry. he has seen his friends,godfather,mentors,parents,and,people who idolized him,die.if it were me, i’d be a zombie, or ,dead.he has gone through so much and he has so much scarring,phisicly and mentlely!to just walk to your death( ;(ive read the books ,all of them,multiple times )that would be TORCHER!im sorry if i spelled it wrong.JK Rowling,you are legend!R.I.P.,Dobby,and,Colin Creevey!
Isn’t it Cedric?
No, the band has a video up with the lyrics and it says Fredrick.
MoM is the best wrock band in my opinion.
@weaselking Fredrick is the formal name for Fred
Totally agree
Beautiful song, one of my favorites besides Don’t Leave. Ministry of Magic is my favorite band of all time.
