Roger Doofenshmirtz sighed sadly as he looked up at the sky from his balcony. The moon was up and the stars are twinkling brightly. How.. how could he be so ignorant to his brother's feelings?! His older one nonetheless. The Mayor's heart ached as he painfully remembered sending his own brother to be imprisoned a couple cities away from they are now. All Heinz wanted was attention and credit... but all he got was an undeserved punishment and rejection from his own family. Roger's eyes filled with tears as he cupped his face in his hands, letting out all of his upset feelings out through a song...
Fate has been cruel and order unkind
How can I have sent you away?
The blame was my own; the punishment, yours
The harmony's silent today
But into the stillness I'll bring you a song
And I will your company keep
Till your tired eyes and my lullabies
Have carried you softly to sleep
Once did a mayor so handsome and young
Look out on his country and sigh
He smiled and said, "Surely, there is nobody
So perfect and so well valiant as I"
So great was his fame and so brilliant his glory
That long was the shadow he cast
Which fell dark upon the big brother he loved
And grew only darker as days and nights passed
Sleep now dear Heinz, goodnight brother of mine
And rest now in night time's embrace
Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth
Through cloud, and through sky, and through space
Carry the peace and the coolness of night
And carry my sorrow in kind
Heinz, you are loved so much more than you know
Forgive me for being so blind
Soon did that mayor take notice that others
Did not give his brother his due
And neither had he loved him as he deserved
He watched as his brother's jealousy grew
But such is the way of the limelight, it sweetly
Takes hold of the mind of its host
And that foolish mayor did nothing to stop
The destruction of one who had needed him most
Sleep now dear Heinz, goodnight brother of mine
And rest now in night time's embrace
Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth
Through cloud, and through sky, and through space
Carry the peace and the coolness of night
And carry my sorrow in kind
Heinz, you are loved so much more than you know
May troubles be far from your mind
And forgive me for being so blind
The years now before us
Hateful and unknown
I never imagined
I'd face them on my own
May these lonely years of
Hatred pass, I pray
I love you; I miss you
When you're far away
May all your dreams be sweet tonight
Safe upon your bed…goodnight
And know not of anger, I really care
And when I dream, I'll fly away and meet you there
Sleep...
