Song lyrics
Sister, I'm not much a poet, but a criminal
And you never had a chance
Love it, or leave it, you can't understand
A pretty face, but you do so carry on
And on and on

I wouldn't front the scene if you paid me
I'm just the way that the doctor made me
On and on and on and on
Love is the red of the rose on your coffin door
What's life like, bleeding on the floor, the floor, the floor

You'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
Give me a reason to believe

[chorus]
So give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts
To make me ill
You're running after something
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at will

Preach all you want but who's gonna save me
I keep a gun on the book that you gave me
Hallelujah, lock and load
Black is the kiss, the touch of the serpent son
It ain't the mark or the scar that makes you one
And run and run and run

You'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
Give me a reason to believe

[chorus]
So give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts
To make me ill
You're running after something
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at will

You'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
You wanna follow something
Give me a better cause to lead
Just give me what I need
Give me a reason to believe

[chorus 2x]

So give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts
To make me ill
You're running after something
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at will

This song rocks!! But after checking the lyrics, it seems very much about how he refuses to believe in god, not to mention it's very negative, so idk how much I'll listen to it anymore...great song though if the lyrics we'ren't negative.


Oh but I do love the part, "Hallelujia, lock and load!"
lol

Oh WOW! I love My Chemical Romance, a LOT. I've been listening to them for about between six to nine months now, and I've been addicted from the beginning!
This song is great! It really rocks! Great lyrics, great rhythm, LOVE the instrumentals (expecialy guitar and bass) and Gerards voice is GREAT in this song! It really evokes emotions, and I LOVE songs that make me feel emotion and stop and think about it, there are so many songs that are just words aranged in a clever pattern, and they feel empty to me.
This song (and MCR) doesn't feel that way to me, so that's one reason I like it.
Also in MCR rocks in general!

Ray Toro is a facking god! Fo' sho.

All the tracks in this song are amazing: the vocals, both guitars, drums, bass. My Chemical Romance is more than just a fad. They're truly, sickly talented. Yay for our NJ boys. NEW JERSEY REPUHZENT!!!

I hope someone's commented on Ray Toro's solo in the middle-- I'm too lazy to look.
But if they have, I'm going to, too.
Best solo on Three Cheers. The one at the end of 'Drowning Lessons' on Bullets was better, but this one's pretty damn good.
The entire guitar part in this song is amazing.

This song is awesome! The first time I heard about My Chemical Romance was on TRL about..2 years ago? And they played "I'm not okay(I promise)" and I did not like it at all.

But it soon grew on me. And now I cannot get enough of them. :]

Wicked song. It's my favorite on the album.

...okay, I think I was intoxicated when I posted the above.

Anyway, I love this song because of the Chorus which describes who I am most of the time . I let people vent out on me even if I'm feeling bad myself...but I let them do so because it makes them feel better. I'm such a sucker because I do it even if I dislike it.

This song's the ultimate follow-up for I'm Not Okay (I Promise). to all the people who get trampled on. You are not alone. Hehe.

To Ilovewill: I'm sorry you feel that way. But do understand that this is a certain genre of music and not all songs are sung.

And to the person who said this: "Marry me Gerard! (but it looks like he has a lot of offers ! @ Least it looks like all u girls have good taste!)" Fyi, Gerard's bisexual. So you should put 'looks like all you people have good taste. Wahahaha.

I'll just post another one later. Gotta go.
