Ok, by now everyone should have seen The Watchmen trailer. If you haven't, you suck.

The song is "The Beginning is the End is the Beginning" by the Smashing Pumpkins. It's from the Batman and Robin soundtrack, but don't get it confused with "The End is the Beginning is the End" since the lyrics are slightly different as well as the tempo as well as the feel. Quu was able to get it for me and I've been looping it since last night. >_>;; Listening to it, I've always caught a few lyrics here and there, but not everything. So, after having just pulled it up.. holy cow! Get a load of this:

Send a heartbeat to
The void that cries through you
Relive the pictures that have come to pass
For now we stand alone
The world is lost and blown
And we are flesh and blood disintegrate
With no more to hate

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so strange
And in your darkest hour
I hold secrets flame
We can watch the world devoured in it's pain

Delivered from the blast
The last of a line of lasts
The pale princess of a palace cracked
And now the kingdom comes
Crashing down undone
And I am a master of a nothing place
Of recoil and grace

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so strange
And in your darkest hour
I hold secrets flame
We can watch the world devoured in it's pain

Time has stopped before us
The sky cannot ignore us
No one can separate us
For we are all that is left
The echo bounces off me
The shadow lost beside me
There's no more need to pretend
Cause now I can begin again

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so strange
And in your darkest hour
I hold secrets flame
We can watch the world devoured in it's pain
Strange
Strange
Strange
Dunno about you, but forget Batman, this song fits Watchmen perfectly. Both versions actually.
