maybe someday this will all make sense
we were so much older back then
now we wonder why we ever mattered
and we carry on with our day
can't you see that the streets are freezing
am I staring at another ceiling?
when the words don't match your feelings
how long do we keep believing?
I'll become your ghost
I'll follow you wherever you go
I'll become your ghost
And we're waiting, waiting, fading away
we all breathe the same air anyway
we all struggle as we try to keep ourselves above the fray
swimming backwards and dragging out our yesterdays
so what's in store today?
I'll become your ghost
I'll follow you wherever you go
I'll become your ghost
And we're waiting, waiting
sometimes we lose sight
of all we ever wanted to hide
when there's no one by your side
I'll become your ghost
I'll follow you wherever you go
I'll become your ghost
And we're waiting
I'll become your ghost
I'll follow you wherever you go
I'll become your ghost
And we're waiting, waiting, fading away

There is no one coming to save the world
So it has to be us
And it's beautiful and sad
And it's all that I have
So that will have to be enough
There is no one coming to save the world
I've been asking myself if I've done enough for this
To be worthy of the world that I have made for us
And in the shadows of the man I was
And the woman I've always been
The truth is I am enough
I've been asking for revolution
Panic and chaos without resolution
When the panic inside was all I could see
Now I find that I'm cleared in my own decisions
I am enough and the world, it has to catch up
Everything that I used to know
Is lost in the past where it belongs
No looking back just further on
Three cheers for the end of the dark
Everything that I used to know
Is lost in the past where it belongs
No looking back just further on
Three cheers for the end of the dark
There is no one coming to save the world
Three cheers for the end of the dark
Three cheers for the end of the dark
Everything that I used to know
Is lost in the past where it belongs
No looking back just further on
Three cheers for the end of the dark
Everything that I used to know
Is lost in the past where it belongs
No looking back just further on
Three cheers for the end of the dark
Everything that I used to know
Is lost in the past where it belongs
No looking back just further on
Three cheers for the end of the dark

Yeah I'm old but I'm under-rated
And I don't want to overstate it
I'm more panicked every single day
Yeah I'm working and I get by
On a diet of alcohol and Facetime
But I miss my friends and the songs we play
There's empty tables everywhere
And darkened theatres; I swear
I saw a ghost last night in my backyard staring
My tremor's getting worse somehow
I can't help but remembering how down
I felt eight years ago and maybe it's worse now
I write songs but no one hears me
I'm fucking sad, don't say I'm lazy
And it just keeps getting worse each day
We're all here hoping it gets better
Trying to get to now from never
And I just can't bring myself to say
That I'm okay
That you're okay
That I'm okay
That we're okay
We can make it top side
We can crawl out of this mess we're in
I can make it top side
I can climb out, I'll be whole again
We can make it top side
We can crawl out of this mess we're in
I can make it top side
I can climb out, I'll be whole again
We can make it top side
We can crawl out of this mess we're in
I can make it top side
I can climb out, I'll be whole again
We can make it top side
We can crawl out of this mess we're in
I can make it top side
I can climb out, I'll be whole again
We can make it top side
We can crawl out of this mess we're in
I can make it top side
I can climb out, I'll be whole again

Now that we're waiting
For another understanding to end
I'm already moving on to "begin"
So when this all ends up with us friends
Then we'll remember how we all start again
And again
I try to recommend
The way back to your heart
Is a bullet to the back of my head
So strike that thought and strike my name from your list
And we'll go back to separation again
I know you'll just forget in the end
So meet me down by the water
We'll take our chance and go to the slaughter
Come back and make up a goodbye
Ok alright, I might just try
To wake up and meet you by the water

I wonder if they'll ever find we're out here
The colors stretch as far as I can see
And I'm feeling like the lot of us will die here
But at least I know it's not all up to me
The hull is taking on all sorts of pressure
And at any moment it's all about to breach
So get your women and your children all out of here
Before there's no air left for them to breathe
I'll find a way to keep you safe
From everything that we have made
For today we'll hide away
I'll keep the light on til we're safe
Captain, I've been thinking of our time here
How oxygen is all we really need
The deck is now our graveyard and we all fear
That death is coming sooner than we believe
So gather up your families and your belongings
The fire makes it hard for us to see
And if God herself had word in all that's happening
She'd say "Earth is where the human race should be"
I'll find a way to keep you safe
From everything that we have made
For today we'll hide away
I'll keep the light on til we're safe
Flying high at night
We found the light
It burned our eyes
Flying high at night
We found the light
It burned our eyes
I'll keep you safe
Whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh oh
I'll keep you safe
Whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh oh
I'll keep you safe

Dressed all in black on this Halloween night
And up from my phone beamed a fabulous sight
Can this be true, tell me it's real
That MCR rises like phantoms with zeal
Where's my shirt from The Black Parade
Does it fit me still
My Chemical Romance is back from the dead
Don't buy yourself tickets
Get me a pair instead
I'd buy them myself but my bank account's low
Tell Liza Minnelli I must see the show
My job is soul-sucking, you don't even know
Please get me please get me please get me some
I don't have any disposable income
What if I'm working, what if I'm up late
What have I become
How do I prove that I'm really worthy
A conspiracy remark about John F Kennedy
I'll sing for the world, I'll do push ups in drag
To witness the show and then later brag
"I was so close to Gerard Way
I almost touched his hand
Oh my god, he actually
Looked at me, I swear"
My Chemical Romance is back from the dead
Don't buy yourself tickets
Get me a pair instead
I'd buy them myself but my bank account's low
Tell Liza Minnelli I must see the show
My job is soul-sucking, you don't even know
Please get me please get me please get me some
I don't have any disposable income
Please get me please get me please get me some
My Chemical Romance is back from the dead
Don't buy yourself tickets
Get me a few instead
I'd buy them myself but my FICO score's low
Tell Liza Minnelli it's on with the show
My job is soul-sucking, you don't even know
Please get me please get me please get me some
I don't have any disposable income
What if I'm working, what if I'm up late
What have I become
Please get me please get me please get me some
I don't have any disposable income
What if I'm working, what if I'm up late
What have I become

There's something rotting
In the pit of my stomach
And it's waiting for something to break out through my skin
I don't think I am able
To bring too much to the table
I'll just keep my voice down and try to keep it in
Keep everything in
There's nothing waiting
No more worlds in the making
Nothing better than me, nothing stronger than all that we are
So I keep myself silent
So much for being defiant
I'll just drifting while everything's falling apart
Falling apart
And I don't think I've found the science
To live up to my defiance
So I trip over my tongue
And fall back into my bad habits
I run and try and try again
Just to end up back where I begin
Draw the circle tight and disappear
These hospital dreams
Break me down at the seams
All my guns are raised and horror's down below again
Time stays and sticks around
So I go back underground
In the hopes the sun might peek below the horizon
Another horizon
And I don't think I've found the science
To live up to my defiance
So I trip over my tongue
And fall back into my bad habits
I run and try and try again
Just to end up back where I begin
Draw the circle tight and disappear
Just stand up straighter
Sing even louder
Nothing can touch you if you don't believe it's real
Just stand up straighter
Sing even louder
Nothing can touch you if you don't believe it's real
If you don't believe you're real
And I don't think I've found the science
To live up to my defiance
So I trip over my tongue
And fall back into my bad habits
I run and try and try again
Just to end up back where I begin
Draw the circle tight and disappear
Draw the circle tight and disappear
Draw the circle tight and disappear

Up on the Philly rooftops
You might see a Santa Grit
He knows if you've been bad or good
But he doesn't give a shit
He knows what you are thinking
So be careful what you say
And sleep with one eye open
He's not messing around today
He's got cigarettes and condoms
For all the good jawns in this city
So say your prayers, shut your mouth
WATCH OUT, it's Santa Gritty
Santa Gritty
Santa Gritty
Santa Gritty
Santa Gritty
Santa Gritty

Santa Gritty

Santa Gritty
He's coming for you!

You make a line
About coming back today
Like I can't see through another
You're waking up
And going back to sleep
I can't see you tomorrow
I while the time away
Bringing it back to me
Like the time I saved
But I can't wait for tomorrow

Getting older in my own head
No one can fix you, to find a way back
So I can smile
I can't find my way home
We were four years old
We were kids, we were so still
The fire is dying
And straying along in our lives
What a night
It's not time
What a lie
We can tell ourselves
Finding a way back home
Tell me a lie
That we're all fine
If we can imagine
All of the weight of it for tonight
Take the pictures down
Sometimes wonder why I keep them around
Wait for a moment
For something to hide my eyes
What a lie
It's not time
What a lie
We can tell ourselves
Finding a way back home
Tell me a lie
That we're all fine
If we can imagine
We can imagine it
And time has taken its toll on me
And I can't find my way back to the
Night we met, night we said
All the things we've forgotten again
Is this you or me tonight
It's not time
What a lie
We can tell ourselves
Finding a way back home
Tell me a lie
That we're all fine
If we can imagine
We can imagine it
That we're alive
That I'm alive
That you're alive
That we're alive
When all I have is tonight
We were four years old
Once we had it all
Now just the weight is left

Not My Exit

For the people I don't care about
The ones I know and can do without
You know who you are
I'm so much more, much more than this
I've left my past behind in the evening mist
I'm better now by far
You can take this anchor
And the weight behind you
And throw it away
With all the years I've spent afraid
'Cause I won't sink
I will keep on rising
We're not falling
For all the goddamn lies
About how it's all too much to take
We'll keep on fighting for our own sake
I'll stand up, I'll face it
'Cause this is not my exit
They all say
"You're old and overrated
Give up, move on, and fade away"
Stuck inside all their past mistakes
Lost in the woods without a path to take
We can make it out alive
'Cause I won't sink
I will keep on rising
We're not falling
For all the goddamn lies
About how it's all too much to take
We'll keep on fighting for our own sake
I'll stand up, I'll face it
'Cause this is not my exit
All I know is what I don't know
'Cause I won't sink
I will keep on rising
We're not falling
For all the goddamn lies
About how it's all too much to take
We'll keep on fighting for our own sake
I'll stand up, I'll face it
'Cause this is not my exit
