Song lyrics
Life's greatest questions have always been...
Who am I? Where did I come from? 
Why am I here? Where am I going? 
You are about to see and hear 
one of the most significant messages given to us from God.

(Cocking Gun)

I'm lying to myself
And this dagger's my excuse
I'm a pawn
I should have paid up
And I left an hour late
I was laid up

I must abuse myself
I'm against all that I've made up
Set in stone, the sun will come
And I hate light
You know I hate light
Don't make it look so pretty burning

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

I must have caught something
In the heat of all these dances
I'm a worm with no more chances
And I've lost all doubt
In a chemical romance

I can't stop itching
Over thoughts of tarnished hope
Kinda funny
Lonely Feeling
I'm not in love
You know it's not love
Don't make it look so pretty burning

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

Brothers and sisters
I'm right here with you
Cause everyone's got one
A story to kill me
I'm so apathetic in my resentment
Living, loving, knowing not...

Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand

Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand

Take my.. life

Take my heart
Take my mind
Take my lungs

Take my.. life !

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take my life
Take my life

that part of "chemical romance" is in the honor of my chemical romance, right?
Great song, really.

This song is really good, my favourite, BUT its freaking me out that the lyrics are wrong here !
its not DONT MAKE IT LOOK SO PRETTY BURNING, its TO ME IT LOOK SO PRETTY BURNING ! At first i thought it was that too, but even on the inside of the booklet that follows the cd says its the last, and i dont think they would write it wrong..

Anyways, this song is really good, this and Hard to Say is the two best on the new cd i think

I find it very hypocritical that The Used would have a line in one of their songs that included "chemical romance" when the reason Bert and Gerard aren't speaking to each other anymore is because Bert accused him of stealing some of The Used's music/lyrics. Oops!

if you knew what a chemical romance was you might realise it's actually just part of the song

and it's to me it looks so pretty burning he hates how pretty it is or whatever if you really listen you can hear thats it's just coz he sings a bit wierd so it sounds wrong

Yeah fuck off Gervais66 !
You really have issues, you know. Linamor is right because she is always, and now I mean ALWAYS right when it comes to music..

So you can just shut up, and swallow your fucking pride..

BTW: this song rocks

One of my favourites off the album, definately.
I don't like the verses so much though.

And uh, gangstaEMO whatever..
No. That's not what it's about.
