Lyrics:

You call out to those around you Emily
Please don't panic
That's the time for William

Liverpool will forget you
And everything isn't beautiful
But nothing hurts you anymore

This is not how it was meant to be today
You will forever be the pain of Stephenson
And Lawrence and Wellington

It's such a shame that you will forever be at the mercy of Stephenson

Liverpool will forget you
And everything isn't beautiful
But nothing hurts you anymore

Liverpool will forget you
And everything isn't beautiful
But nothing hurts you anymore

William's Last Breath tells the story of William Huskisson. William Huskisson (11 March 1770 – 15 September 1830), was a British statesman, financier, and Member of Parliament for several constituencies, including Liverpool. He is best known today, however, as the world's first railway casualty, having been accidentally killed by George Stephenson's locomotive engine Rocket (click here for more).
