Hello Sylar, my future friend
I've come to ask for help again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Emma's savior, is Sylar
In your restless dream I walked alone
Narrow streets of paving stones
Calling out as I looked for you
I hoped the dream I'd had was really true
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a brilliant light
And there you were
I'd found the soul of Sylar
But first this truth that I must face
All these acts that mean disgrace
People killed without remorse
People murdered without recourse
People like my brother who I'll never see
You took from me
Why would you help me, Sylar?
My heart is full of painful doubt
Maybe I shouldn't let you out
I hear your words of apology
And although they ring with sincerity
It is hard for me to believe you have changed
Cold revenge
It's not your fate, Sylar
And so I learned to forgive
The life that you had lived
The person that you used to be
Was not the person I now could see
And we turned our hammers to bringing down those high brick walls
Watch them fall
Heroes together, me and Sylar
