I don't see many videos with lyrics to this song, so here I made one :3 enjoy!
I just had a moment of realization about this song. "from the lights to the pavement, from the van to the floor, from backstage to the doctors, from the earth to the morgue" its Gerard's life at that time and thats what he thought his fate would be...the emotions in this song hit me; its tragically beautiful...sure many of their songs are emotional, but this one hit me the hardest. It sums up my life and I hang on each lyric of this song. It gives me chills and makes me tear every time I hear it
I love how Gerard was drunk out of his mind when this was recorded and still managed to sing this beautiful, emotional, amazing song. If that doesn’t describe MCR, I don’t know what does.
Right
um he was? How do you know that?
William Smith many different reliable sources said so, and i think gerard said something about it in an interview
@@starrellison4676 Well damn that shows you how much talent he has. Although it is a bit unprofessional to be drunk when you are getting ready to record a song
William Smith he did have a lot of drinking problems, and i’m pretty sure this song wasn’t even on the album so they definitely realized that
I'm sad that MCR is gone but like.. Gerard is so much happier now. I'm so happy for him. He's come so far...
They said they wanted to be like Smashing Pumpkins
Smashing Pumpkins were together for 12 years, took a 9 year break, and got back together.
My Chemical Romance were together for 12 years, so maybe after a 9 year break they'll be back together, in 2019? Or so it's rumored
well.. they might get back together. Have you seen their fb & Twitter?
@Uncommon unicorn , let us hope ❤️
I hate you. ;-;
Jillian E agreed
It's so sad how he literally hit rock bottom to the point of wanting to kill himself and this song just explains it.
I'm really happy that he recovered and made it through those rough and dark times with the help of his friends and family and he's a stronger and happier person now with his own family to look after for.
I die a little bit inside seeing your shitfaced dp
I have no idea where I would be in my life right now if he died before Black Parade. So many of my life choices came from that album
Hearing Gerard’s voice sound so feral and emotional at some parts legit almost made me cry
My sister is crying rn
Same :(
He was drunk when he did this song
i've never heard someone use feral to describe his voice before but it fits so well
I think it’s because he realized, at this point in the band, how fragile the band was. I don’t think he sang this to be a b-side, never to be spoken about ever again. Gerard made this his opus. He was struggling with addiction to pills and alcohol right around this time. He saw it all and sang this for that reason. One of the most beautiful songs, sang exactly how he wanted. Beautiful
The feels hit me harder than that goddamn bullet hit Mikey in Ghost Of You
Lanasaur NO
Lanasaur Dude, nothing beats The Ghost of You
spøøkysenpai wE DONT-
spøøkysenpai WE DONT TALK ABOUT THATTTTT

This song and the lyrics and emotions are just so... raw. You can literally feel what Gerard was feeling through his voice, it was as if he poured his heart out through singing this song.
True, Gerard thought that this was one of their worst because he was drunk while recording, but personally (and a lot of people would agree) I love it.
Pencey This song is actually one of my favorites.
Pencey that's why I really enjoy when they sing live songs
Pencey (he had a toothache when he recorded it)
Pencey (prep)?
The way he sings this song has that same idk how to call it, but I can hear the same thing in his voice in the song The Light Behind Your Eyes. Is not the power, is the way his voice sounds like, a voice different from what we hear in The Black Parade. Maybe I'm not making any sense..
Nah you do make sense, I feel it too
Becuse he wort the song after his gramdma passed and he sang the light behind your eyes wich is adout stusied wich is relatadle for him
the way I describe it is oil on pavement at night
Potts yeah like it’s not powerful but the pure emotion in his voice
Edit: it’s also kinda in Early Sunsets Over Monroeville once it gets to ‘but does anyone notice, but does anyone care’
That's called sadness
this song makes me cry, not because of they lyrics or the meaning, but because they played this at my friend's funeral after she died in a car accident.
I'm sorry for your loss.
lilow chicken oh god I'm sorry :c
lilow chicken Oh ok. Don't worry! your friend is watching you from heaven and when she sees you suffering, she feels pain. And don't worry! She's loving you from heaven! Now, she's in a better place now! She's an angel that is protecting you from heaven!😇😇
Billionfold world What? Can't I say something? What's your problem btw?
Billionfold world whats wrong with you?
It may sounds a little cheesy but I love this song because you can really feel the desolation and the pain in his voice, the representation of the dark place trough he was passing by on his mind in that hard times with deppresion and addiction.. it's so sad, because Gee is a beautiful human and he deserves to be happy
He got mad drunk to record this
Lol listen demolition lovers
Great, someone's cutting onions again.
they're back :)
Person: Are you crying?
Me: No..I just have something in my eyes.
Person: Oh yeah whats in your eyes?
Me: TEARS
Kharjo The Khajiit an idea* :)
High Sauce Wizard an ikea
i'm not crying I just have a little bit of mcr in my eyes
More like the light behind your eyes
Kharjo? What are you doing here? Where's the Dragonborn?
I love how Gerard is like, expressing his feelings though his voice.I always and will love My Chemical Romance forever.
@Todoroki Hi, this is my old account, and yes, I still love them:)
@Todoroki They’re still my favorite band and Gerard Way is still my idol 🖤🖤🖤
I can just imagine Gerard going into his basement or attic, finding an old guitar, and playing this song as tears start falling down his face
.... I see you over there Gee
*_ow_*
Well he couldn't cause he can't sing and play lol it's the reason why we have Frank
How dare you.
Don't make me cry plz
Actually, when i first listen to this song. I drowned myself in tears. And later i saw and interview of them. Where Gerard said that this song was about when his grandmother died. Right when there album came out. Three cheers for sweet revenge album.
Liz Vazquez that's the wrong song. It was Helena you're thinking of. This song isn't even on three cheers. This song is about his drug and alcohol addiction and this song was recorded whilst he was high and drunk but they did it anyway. Hence why he is slurring a lot.
Proof he didn't use autotune bc his intonation is all over the place. Still sounds so real and good. I prefer this to autotuned Gerard like on their other music.
clockWorks10 I've heard he was also drunk while they recorded this, so that also might've had something to do with it.
@@joeysandoval5269 and also him Grandmother died not long before he created this song .....
@@princessapplestrach6327 This song is really emotional for a lot of reasons
@@joeysandoval5269 yeah ..... I'm trying to download all MCR's songs
Yeah I’m reading a book about them and it said he was absolutely hammered
*The morgue bit*
Me: *cries until I'm in one*
This hit me hard. The emotions and rawness of Gerards voice in this song. I immediately got hit with a wave of emotions making me cry and my heart hurt because of the meaning behind this
Same
when he starts saying morgue I cry everytime
Me too... ;^;
Same
It does sum to me man
I can't handle this, there isn't too many songs that make me cry, slots make me tear up, but this one, I'M NOT CRYING I JUST HAVE SOME MCR IN MY EYES!
Addie Piotrowski i think i have some in my eyes tooo!!!
No, you're crafting.
Addie Piotrowski SAAAAAAAAAAME
Addie Piotrowski You just got some March 22nd in your eyes
G F# B E D C G B A...
I will never in my life forget when I saw this performed in concert. Congress theatre in Chicago. Pitch black. And Gerard was sitting on a chair smoking a cigarette and all you could see was the light from it. And him singing this with so much passion. One of my life’s favorite memories.
that’s amazing. what year was it?
@@lordtsatan 2007
This song always brings me to tears...
Best MCR song ever! I love it!
Sad it's about GERARD'S depression. .. :(
I only found this song a week ago. I can't stop listening to it. Why are sad songs always my favorites?
Sad songs are always the best because they apply to larger groups of people than emotional songs.
Im crying. This song is so powerful. You can feel every single emotion gerard was feeling when he sang this. This is so meaningful and i absolutely adore this song. Even though it is sad, very very sad, it is one of my favorites.
I honestly can’t choose if this or The Light Behind Your Eyes is my favorite MCR song and it’s really bothering me
I Can’t Leave My Emo Phase SAME
It dosen't matter, its the same energy what cames from these two song
DAMNIT I CANT EITHER
The only time I listen to this song is generally when my own self destruct sequence in the final few minutes of the night but its never ceases to amaze me how efficient it is at expressing just how low I'm feeling to myself god bless those with the courage to admit these things to themselves before its too late
Same for me. I really only listen to this on sleepless nights and when I feel like I've hit rock bottom. Music is my addiction besides cutting (since I'm trying to recover)
Same for me..
That's exactly what I'm doing right now... smoking a cigarette while listening to this song late at night
@@potts7494 Cringe
@@shrekthe3rd104 🖕that's serious shit, you heartless bitch
This song gives me chills oh my god...my top 4 MCR songs (in no particular order) have got to be this, Early Sunsets Over Monroeville, Demolition Lovers, and Famous Last Words. Gerard has so much passion and raw emotion in his voice that I absolutely love
I love all four of those songs man
demo lovers never gets enough love
From the lights to the pavement
From the van to the floor
From backstage to the doctor
From the Earth to the morgue, morgue, morgue, morgue
So heartbreaking and powerful
I wore a My Chemical Romance shirt to school......
My uncle said,"so you are emo now".
Umm I do that all the time. my family and friends call be emo like they are trying to offend me or something
My uncle told me he would like me if I emo or not and winked at me and grabbed by brests
Jon SWEET HOME ALABAMA
@@justchris6046 welcome to alabama kiddos
why was ur uncle at school 😳❕
i love gerard way so freaking much.
fronk iero Who doesn't?
its so sad that this masterpiece is like one of their most underrated songs, its my favorite above everything.
It's 4am

it's literally 4:06am rn, I feel ya
Sad boi hours effects all of us
Its actually 4 am right now
By far my favorite My Chem Track. Overated for the wrong reasons Severly underated for all the same. I miss this band so much.
This is like a mental breakdown in song form. So much raw emotion. I don’t cry at songs all that much, with a few exceptions (most songs i can cry to are mcr songs), but this one seriously got me. It hurts how powerful and beautiful it is.
Arguably MCR's best, most emotional song. Never fails to make my heart hurt some kind of way.
This is what Frank said about recording this song:
To record that song, Gerard just got wasted all night. The final recordingwas just drunk. It fitted the mood of the song though. It was more like he was playing a character and, in order to play that person, he had to get fucked up.
I legitimately found this band through crack videos and I'm proud of that
Shay Needs A Life dude same I heard it and I was like WHAT SONG IS THIS IVE NEVER HEARD IT
Shay Needs A Life Same.
Same
Shay Needs A Life I found it when I was looking at a BuzzFeed page on classic emo songs or something at 2 am
samee
Last year, I was in a rough phase in life. I was not doing okay. I wasnt able to figure out adulthood or life in general. I was horrified to keep on breathing. My skies were always filled with dread. Lonely, crying my heart out at the rooftop terrace while listening to this very song.
This song made me feel like, I have my past and future selves, patting me on the back. Because, no one else would understand that phase that I've went through but myself. And that's okay. Listening to this song again, brings back all of those memories. It reawakens the version of me that was in pain. Giving me another chance to revisit, and returning the favour to comfort my past self.
I'm in a much better state now, but I will never forget how this song made me feel comfort in the heavy storm. In those moments where I didn't know where to go.
Thank you Gerard and MCR for this awesome song.
Who put these onions here?
**sobs violently**
Your name though
Piano Made Of Noodles I love that spongebob reference
Your comment matches your pfp i cant 😂😂😂
Nice pfp b0$s
Confused screaming
27 year old black kid from South Memphis Tennessee..and I love this band and this song is the shit. My friends always thought I was weird for liking alternative and rock music but I have since a kid. So much pain and emotion. Gerard’s voice been undefeated.
I remember being 15 and seeing them in concert and hearing Gerard sing this live killed me. Just something about the pain in his voice stuck with me for over a week and I was so depressed. It’s amazing how artists have that much influence on you! That was 11 years go. Still makes me cry.
the only way to describe his voice in this is like oil on pavement at night
I just saw mcr live in concert for the first time last night, they closed with this song. Best night of my life. I sobbed the whole time.
I was there too and i sing my lungs out like ugh i still can't move on from last night!
I was listening to brother and this song came up next
*-cries in emo-*
A week ago my playlist sent me to the fricken hospital. Ghost of You, Brother, Cmon, WTTBP, and Desert Song.
I died, halp im still recovering
@@apollo421 sadly, yes, but I survived
A few days ago Spotify played cancer right after brother. I actually started crying.
I played this in class and people were like “who is this”
Me: uh My Chemical Romance
Class: this is not MCR
Me: shoves phone is everyone’s faces
Them: OMG IT IS MCR
Me: -facepalm- you can tell by Gerard’s voice
Them: Who?
Me: - jumps off third floor of school- so long cruel world
This song is one of the few songs that makes me cry. There's so many emotions that I feel when I listen to this, and it reminds me of my current self destruction. It's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard
Idk how to explain this, but this song, early sunsets over motorvile, the lights behind your eyes and Romance are all married
Just got out of their concert , and this was the last song Gerard sang. Wonderful concert, and wonderful song . This was definitely the best song they could choose to end the concert.
i hope they play this when i seem them in newark tm, i will sob (even if they dont im still sobbing)
the fact that he was drunk and so out of it when they recorded this. It feels like he's talking to himself. I hear covers of it and the tone and perspective just changes so drastically, but nothing beats this emotion. I feel anger and sadness in his voice, like he's so fucking fed up with himself but can't seem to change and just oh man that fucks me up. I'm so glad he's better now
This song is so pure.. I can't even...
It's beautiful ;-;
i cried listening to this just feeling the heart breaking emotion gerard is emoting while singing this just makes me cry. i wanna run up to him and tell him that everything’s okay and that tomorrow he’ll feel better. that’s how this song makes me feel.
Me too i just wanna hug him and tell him that he's saved my life so many times and i wanna tell him how amazing he is and all that
Me too, he sounds like he’s crying at the end
It's songs like this, where you can really hear the emotion and care that Gee put in the song that makes me wish they were still together... we miss you MCR please come back to us
Why is this not a trigger but a g note is? God, you can hear the pain behind the drunk in his voice and it hurts my heart more than anything else they've done....
Maybe I'm not the number 1 fan of MCR but I know that this song is going to stay with me forever. It's amazing and it's making me so emotional. It's just so beautiful
The part where he says morgue like that over and over hits wayyy to close to home makes me cry literally so hard
Goodbye Isabelle, I'll cherish your 41 years on our earth. 41 years in which you not only blessed us with your love, voice, laugh, tears, hugs, and 3 beautiful kids, my cousins. It still doesn't feel real. But nothing feels real when someone passes, I see you blessed us with a beautiful sky this night, August 1st, 2020. Thank you, I love you. I didn't say it enough. I hope you know this. Come and say hi one last night will you? Please visit my dream. Goodbye. 🖤🖤🖤
you doing ok?
hugs
I've been a fan of MCR for over half my life, since I was 11 in 2005, till now. They helped me so much when I was young and going through a lot, sometimes I go a while without listening to them and when I do it brings back so emotions. This song was one that I listened to a lot back then, still makes me cry.
This also reminds me of waking up to this song play on the life on the murder scene menu, I couldn't sleep without the light and TV on when I was little and I would play that dvd a lot.
Gee said that this was supposed to be the last track on Revenge, but it didn’t make the cut for the time being. This is definitely one of the most heartbreaking songs they have. “Rocking out, just for the dead” he’s talking about the protagonist among the dead, and about us! The sad people who feel “dead” on the inside. It just occurred to me for the first time today.
oh my gosh, this song is honestly so amazing, i can hear the emotion in his voice and its just so raw and unfiltered my fav mcr song at the moment
I love this song. It's sad knowing the fact about Gerard's depression and addiction. It's VERY! powerful and meaningful. I cry when thinking of my dad who is like Gee. It honestly hits me in the feels every time I listen to this.
I think this is the most beautiful lyric video I've ever seen. XO
This song has such an impact on me it brings me to tears everytime. When my dad died when I was 12 I kept listening to this on repeat and getting the raw painful emotions out, it helped me cope by helping me to just completely die and crumble on the inside to then be able to rise again, it sure as hell took time but having gotten the worst emotions reacted out helped. Now whenever someone close to me dies I put this on and deal with sorrow in the same way, I did the same when my cat died, I had that cat for 14 years and we grew up together, he was my best friend in the world and was always there for me, I miss him so much. My chemical romance helped me deal with my worst moments of my life this is why they mean the fucking world to me. I am now 23 and this song will always hit me like a wave when I hear it, it sort of takes me back to those moments.
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever like I’m not emotional or sad or anything but this still made me cry the way Gerard sings this makes it so beautiful and the lyrics are amazing
I love how he can sound so gorgeous when drunk and high, yet I can't even sing decently regularly xD
I'm happy that he's doing much better now though.
So glad they played this live
The best lyrics video on youtube, imo.
Why does this not have more views? Good Quality, great video.
Good job, mate. I think it's terrific. [:
Could be a little louder though?
its not a very well known song so it's not gonna get many views
sexymusiclovez That's how loud it is. If you don't like it go to the original vid on MCR's account and listen from there.
still crying over this one... so proud of gee now.
Probably my favorite vocals from Gerard ever
I’m 1 minute in and already crying...this is my first time listening to this
well, I've just listened the first time to the song and, yes, I am crying, definitely
Because of the lyrics, all these emotions you can hear, and because of the pain in his voice
and do, you know which song it reminds me of? what makes me cry even harder?
The fact, tou can hear like the same pain or emotions when he sang PIano Jam
The way he sings, with all these feelings, thats what touches me every time, but this is also what breaks my heart...
Like i just wanna hug him and promise him everything will be alright
Every time I hear this song, I remember how close to the end this beautiful man was, and I am once again grateful that he was stronger than his illness.
"And through it all, we'll find some other Way" He's Gerard. There's now Lyn-Z Way And Bandit Way
We're all crying with him
i remember being at my lowest point i’ve ever been and just listening to so much mcr to make me feel better. i’m slowly recovering, but they have helped me so so much❤️
best song to be along with today especially
Social.climb is it March 22nd?
I can run, jog, walk, and do so much more through this song.
Even when I'm listening to this and not paying attention, I still always almost cry.
Poor Gerard... :( A very dark chapter in his life.
this makes me want to cry
"I can see you awake anytime in my head
Is probably the most vague and depressing thing I've ever heard
I used to dislike this song a refused to listen to it but as I got older I started to love it more. The pain in his drunken voice breaks my heart.
I love the emotion. This takes me back to my high school days and finding myself.
Well MCR is finally bacc
Parallels with Foundations of Decay so many times. "Swelled up from the rain clouds, move like a wraith", "you must build an altar where it swells". "And after all, we'll lie another day... all fall down, after all", "GET UP COWARD!". "Through cartilage and flood... Did you come to stare or wash away the blood?" "Let it flood, let it flood, let it wash away."
honestly one of my favourite mcr songs, its so raw and beautiful
I sang this song at my friend's funeral and it brings back so many memories... still makes me cry to this day
I'm crafting really hard right now, the emotion in this song is too much for me to handle.
JanaRichie k I'm in the phandom too but can you not say "crafting" instead of crying, like this song is very emotional and serious so can you please just stop?
WHAT DOES CRAFTING MEAN IN THIS SCENARIO?!?!?!?
I think they’re talking about crafting in minecraft
Puffin it’s a Dan and Phil thing
see i knew as a kid that gerard dealt with addiction but it didn't hit me as deeply as it does now being in the throes of addiction myself. i feel so deeply for him. if he can make it through this bs i can too.
you got this i believe in you! it's rough sometimes but so worth it
AYE IM THE 69TH SUB
also this song is 1000000/10
I love this song
All these years later and I'm still coming back to this song to get me through my darkest moments.
Im so glad you're back, MCR
I never heard this song before commenting this. I told myself that on the day where the other mcr songs werent enough to cheer me up, I would listen to this song for the first time and see if it could manage to finally make me happy.
Guess what. It worked.
Seriously my favorite MCR song. First time I heard a bit of this song on their making of Black Parade on the CD, I immediately needed more.
This is and always has been my favorite MCR track.
THIS SONG IS SO PERFECT!!!!!!!!! FAVVVVVVV
Jeezuz frack how are you so happy about this?
I forgot about this song, until I found a high school document I wrote the lyrics onto. Damn. I LOVE the guitar
I wasn’t planning on crying today but life is full of surprises:)
Defiantly the most underated MCR song
This song gives
the air back to my lungs.
I just can't take off of my mind... I don't know what happens but since a few days all the day is that song in my head.
Tricia1192 are u talking about the mcrpocalypse
oh dear it’s my first time listening and it’s just the intro and i’m dead already
"And did you come to stare or wash away the blood?"
