Zack Snyder - Men Are Still Good lyrics

Cut to DAILY PLANET The latest edition of the Planet has been printed. Perry White grabs one to check out. Front page reads "SUPERMAN DEAD:NIGHT OF TERROR, MORNING OF LOSS". Perry opens, page 3 has two featured stories: "Daily Planet Reporter Clark Kent k**ed Reporting Gotham Battle" and "Lex Luthor Arrested In Connection With Capitol Bombing”. Cut to KENT FARM A private funeral is held for Clark in Martha Kent's house, attended by Perry and all of Clark's Smallville acquaintances as well. A sad Martha enters Clark's room, where Lois stares silently at the ceiling, and pa**es an envelope to her. MARTHA KENT Hi. Clark had this sent here so he can surprise you. Lois opens it - it's an engagement ring. She cries. Cut to METROPOLIS A military funeral attended by millions is held for Superman in Metropolis, with bagpipes playing Amazing Grace, gun salutes, a black coffin with a silver Superman shield draped in the American flag … Cut to SMALLVILLE …while Kal-El's actual body is buried in a more private ceremony in his Kansas hometown. Bruce and Diana are also in attendance, and talk to each other as they watch Lois picking up some dirt to throw in. BRUCE WAYNE All the circuses back east, burying an empty box. DIANA PRINCE They don't know how to honor him. Except as a soldier. BRUCE WAYNE I've failed him, in life. I won't fail him in d**h. Help me find the others like you. DIANA PRINCE Perhaps they don't want to be found. BRUCE WAYNE They will. And they'll fight. We have to stand together. DIANA PRINCE A hundred years ago I walked away from mankind. From the century of horrors. Man made a world where standing together is impossible. BRUCE WAYNE Man is still good. We fight. We k**. We betray one another. But we can rebuild. We can do better. We will. We have to. Cut to Metropolis In the Metropolis burial ground, a large crowd holds candles to Superman. A close-up on the headstone shows it has been covered with the graffiti IF YOU SEEK HIS MONUMENT LOOK AROUND YOU Cut to SMALLVILLE DIANA PRINCE The others like me. Why did you say they'll have to fight? BRUCE WAYNE Just a feeling. Cut to: PRISON Lex Luthor has his hair shaved. GUARD Turn around and face the wall. Place your forehead against the wall. Put your hands behind your back, so that I can come in and restrain you. Lights flicker. Batman suddenly appears in Lex's cell and pushes him against the wall while holding the heated Bat-iron. BATMAN Whatever you do. Wherever you go. I'll be watching. LEX LUTHOR But, the bells are already been rung, and they've heard it. Out in the dark. Among the stars. Ding dong, the God is dead. Batman punches as the lights flicker again. Once it's lit again, he's gone and the cell wall has the Bat symbol. Lex rushes towards the closing doors and grabs the bars. LEX LUTHOR The bells, cannot be unrung! He's hungry. He's found us. And he's coming! Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding. Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding. Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding. Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding. Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding. Cut to LUTHOR MANSION As Lex continues to "ring", the FBI is inspecting his mansion. The camera closes on the demonic painting he showed to Senator Finch earlier. Cut to SMALLVILLE Lois throws some dirt on Clark's coffin, and leaves. As they leave, the dirt atop the coffin begins to levitate.
