My name is Edward Elric. Not to long ago my mother died of a fatal illness leaving me and my little brother, Alphonse, to live on our own.
We sit in front of her grave, alone, crying until our tears leave us with nothing more to cry about. Crying was a useless thing to do, nothing was going to bring her back.
He's walking like a small child
But watch his eyes burn you away
Black holes in his golden stare
God knows he wants to go home
Children of The Damned
Children of The Damned
Children of The Damned
We had this idea, a theory. The ultimate taboo of alchemy. Human… transmutation. Our mother was so kind and nice; all we wanted was to see her smile again. A few months later, all the sweat, all the work, we got it done.
Water: 35 liters, carbon: 20 kg, ammonia: 4 liters, lime: 1.5kg, phosphorus: 800 g, salt: 250 g, saltpeter: 100 g, sulfur: 80 g, fluorine: 7.5 g, iron: 5 g, silicon and 15 other elements in small quantities.
This list is the total chemical make up for one adult body. Once we under stood the chemistry the rest came easy. We never had any doubts.
The time came, to try out what we worked so hard on. Sparks and lights the colour of gold swirled around us, the feeling was great. We couldn't wait to see mom again. Something went wrong the moment everything turned crimson red. "Somethings wrong." I could hear my brother say. Then a scream. I watched in horror was my little brother was being taken apart. I wanted to save him but my left leg was disappearing. Was being taken away.
Now it's burning his hands
Yells as the flame sears the flesh
Melting his face, screaming in pain
Peeling the skin from his eyes
Watch him die according to plan
He's dust on ground, what did we learn
I yelled in pain, blood poured out the wound where my leg once was. I cried out my brother's name over and over. He was gone. Why… how could this happen? It wasn't suppose to be like this.
With all the strength I could muster, I crawled to an empty suit of armor. Writing the rune on the inside with my own blood. "Give me back my little brother!" I yelled before I clapped my hands on the armor.
He's walking, like a dead man
If he had lived he would crucified us all
Now he's standing, on his last stand
He thought oblivion well it beckons us all
Children of The Damned

Children of The Damned
The pain of now losing my right arm was overwhelming but didn't go to waste. I was successful with getting my brother back, but he'll never be the same. Now nothing but a soul locked in a body of living steel. Although, now Alphonse can't feel physical pain but emotional pain. The pain of never being able to feel the feeling the flesh and bone, the difference between hot or cold. And I, being equipped with Auto-mail to walk and do things on my own.
Al and I decide to set off to retrieve what we lost. Not before burning down our own house so we have nothing to turn back to. We were going to go all the way to get our bodies back. We knew the transmutation was forbidden, we ignored all the warnings. This is what happens when two people try to bring back on person.
You're Children of The Damned
Your back's against the wall
You turn into the light
You're burning in the night
You're Children of The Damned
Like candles watch them burn
Burning in the light
You'll burn again tonight
You're Children of The Damned...
