Gerard after they finish
"Okay, cool, now let's do something completely different for the album"

[@jlewwis1995]

They probably didn't put it in because it sounds a lot like The Ghost Of You

[@nataleewhitney3649]

Probably.

[@smileswrappedingauze]

idk i don't really think it does.. this song is in Gm, & ghost of you is in Bm... the only real similarity is that they start on a solid clean guitar intro, then a simplified melody of distorted power chords for the chorus, but that's describing like half of their discography / songs in general right there lol. i do like both songs too, though.

[@scoiattolosabbioso4420]

Gerard after they finish conventional weapons
"Ok, cool now let's scrap the record and do something completely different for the new album (danger days)"

[@scoiattolosabbioso4420]

And also...
Gerard after they finish the paper kingdom (MCR5)
"Okay, cool now let's breakup the band"

[@pepsimax48820]

I don't even know how they ended up with the final version though because these are so different

[@druddalol8038]

Ikr

[@clemencegagnon8293]

i was thinking that too!

[@tobito2013]

Yeah!
This could've been another song all together.

[@isaac.aaron.standen]

i thought that as well

[@WhiteLexye]

It sounds like another one of their songs but there is no name in my head. BUT I AM POSITIVE I've heard something extremely similar before in their older stuff

[@lsschck]

it's so ghost of you with demolition lovers it's unbelievable
i'm
in
love

[@earlysnset]

Laís Schieck im cryinhg

[@Ow33e]

Well, you're not wrong.

[@BlahBlah-cm1os]

I hear some Romance in the beginning too.

[@ourladyofsorrowsxx]

The don’t leave me here is SO ghost of you

[@Ducky2223]

This is very desert song too

[@Kovukingsrod]

[@ryan6548]

Hey Kovu! And I couldn't agree more

[@kyer.8225]

[@mshatz3551]

KOVUUUUU heyyyy but SAMEEEE

[@AliceandHare_]

SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME

[@daintydiplomat]

YOU KNOW

[@slashersize]

This was house of wolves at one point, holy shit it changed

[@Lukewarm111]

This song has the lyric house of wolves in it so they probably just stole the lyric from this song and used it as the title for the faster final version

[@jermarule34]

Version 1: a pleading, sad and angry and fearful song
Version 2: DIT DIT DIT DIT *GUITAR RIFF*

[@ibrahimsaslag]

Final album version: Version 2 but horny

[@popsicko6493]

This kind of sounds like The Ghost Of You

[@Hamuelin]

I almost started singing The Ghost of You xD

[@itsnotayoutubeaccount.itsa556]

lol it does

[@NickNoback]

it sounds like the ghost of you and final house of wolves had a baby

[@evepratt5446]

And the sound of my heart shattering

[@wikstik]

It also sounds like this is how i disappear.

[@theductductgoose]

this.... i was gonna say an entirely different song, but it sounds so much like the ghost of you.... what???

[@theductductgoose]

they must have decided the music didnt fit, and saved it for later, then when they changed the music maybe gee rewrote it too??? i have no idea thats totally a guess. how.

[@brylie2607]

I was gonna say the same thing. it sounds a lot like The Ghost Of You

[@noncreativeamateur1926]

yep. Got that 'Ghost of You' vibe.

[@bibbumblebee]

Charlie Wow It's almost like "The Ghost of You, part II."

[@imor0014]

Maybe this is a second part for The Ghost Of You?

[@kletap4463]

TOO MANY VIDS AT THE SAME TIME OMG

[@auxsarxs851]

I KNOW RIGHT

[@sarahz9592]

[@hannahmiller1115]

+Alexander Sigsworth same lol

[@karawaltman7627]

This sounds like a mix of Ghost Of You and Heaven Help Us... I wonder how they managed to change it so much

[@ctgrl]

Kara W and "Emily"

[@user-eq2ds2hc6i]

omg it does sound like heaven help us

[@rainbowsam2335]

I remember somebody commenting on the MCRX video that their birthday is on 9/23 so whoever you are Happy Birthday

[@allisonselman9175]

[@rainbowsam2335]

[@AlexPGSV]

Yep

[@clairee527]

the emos gods have blessed us.

[@noncreativeamateur1926]

September 24 - Ray will be playing with Gerard. c:

[@FairyPerryx]

Frank is releasing parachutes next week. It's all happening

[@ricari18]

Does the guitar in the beginning of this song sounds like a faster version of 'Demolition Lovers' to anybody else?

[@jlewwis1995]

Someone on the MCR subreddit mentioned that too :D It definitely has some bullets/revenge vibes. It's sort of like the beginning on demolition lovers + the ghost of you :D

[@horseandogs]

My two favorite songs combined ;) I love the way MCR has that old timey vibe especially gerard's high vocal flairs. I really love the demos because they remind me of their darker more emotional style during bullets

[@WokeUp0lder]

the beginning sounds exactly like misery by creeper

[@SamBuckland]

The beginning sounds like Interlude

[@mstasproles242]

Yes

[@rocksgio]

There's so much sorrow and power in this song, I need a studio version soooo bad

[@oreydamichelle]

I love how different this is from the final version

[@mstasproles242]

Me to

[@madmikem16]

Me too

[@Joes8186]

Me tooo

[@irisgorin145]

MCR I love you. Don't let this be the last we hear from you. Please.

[@noncreativeamateur1926]

[@irisgorin145]

Yeah, but.. It's still not the same

My heart hurts

[@annamarierevisado5800]

You got your wish

[@Emma-bt1vz]

0:46 reminds me of the part in The Ghost Of You were Gerard screams/sings “woah”

[@ezzobomb]

*Last time I was this early MCR were still together. My inner emo is coming out*

[@jeeemmm]

😢😮😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@andyelectric1535]

[@jeeemmm]

***** can i drink you?

[@magicdragon1826]

did you copy and paste this comment on all the MCR songs just released?

[@aragornwannabe1441]

Love, was just a passing phase
A fever that ran away
'Till they could find us where we lay
Blood, they smell it from miles away
Try to look past and see
And just get used to the taste
[Pre-Chorus]
But don't leave me here
Don't leave me here
[Chorus]
And don't walk away
And let me die
Oh, in this house of wolves
And pray for my soul
Now that I go
Into this house of wolves
[Verse 2]
Don't believe what you read
Or sometimes what you see
But most of it is true, too true
And are you happy this way?
And scalpels bring back this face
Tell the judge that I'm innocent
Tell the jury I'm no one at all
[Pre-Chorus]
But don't leave me here
Don't leave me here
[Chorus]
Don't walk away
And let me die
Oh, in this house of wolves
And pray for my soul
Now that I go
Into this house of wolves
[Interlude]
Hey, do you want it?
[Bridge]
Ah, the bleeding
Don't stop the bleeding in your heart
The bleeding, don't stop that bleeding in your
Ah, the bleeding
Don't stop the bleeding in your heart
The bleeding, don't stop
[Pre-Chorus]
But don't leave me here
Don't leave me here
[Chorus]
Don't walk away
Let me die
Oh, in this house of wolves
And pray for my soul
Now that I go
Into this house of wolves
Don't walk away
And let me die
Oh, in this house of wolves
And pray for my soul
Now that I go
Into this house of wolves
[Outro]
You cannot stop the bleeding, baby
You cannot stop the bleeding, baby
She won't stop the bleeding, baby
She won't stop
Don't walk away
And let me die
Oh, in this house of wolves
And pray

[@teresaesther7297]

thank u!!❤️❤️

[@malk4618]

thanks so much I could not understand anything he said

[@leslysisi6714]

Thanks! Now I can play this and show my mom just how much the song changed without her getting mad at me for hearing a song with cussing.

[@nannybells]

gerard's raw vocals are everything, I hope he never stops singing 😢❤

[@jpegpegg6768]

Description 'the members of mcr' not the former members of mcr

[@9_in_the_afternoon]

How can the tense of a verb give me so much hope...

[@Hamuelin]

and he's been in the studio recording more solo stuff on and off

[@squeeged]

👀👀👀

[@joshdunsdrumstick]

DarkwingDuck 1984 hahahha ha ha HA

[@mrock46453]

this aged well.

[@piaespinoza]

This is like The Ghost of you 2

[@maddylimee837]

:46 sounds like that one part in the ghost of you towards the end where gee starts screaming with the drum taps and all, if that makes sense

[@allisonselman9175]

I wouldn't have thought of it without reading this comment but yesssss

[@memegoddess8014]

This thing is like
Ghost Of You meets Demolition Lovers and there you have it. House Of Wolves demo

[@aaadj2744]

And the released version literally sounds like Vampire Will Never Hurt You meet Dead 😂

[@hexawombz]

The intro tells me "Heaven Help Us" but the rest says "The Ghost Of You"/"This Is How I Disappear" but there's now "House Of Wolves" to be found here

[@hexawombz]

No*

[@BlizzardWind99]

this is the ultimate song cause 3 songs in one song- over 9000!

[@sydneymarlin9928]

this sounds kind of like their first album with how post hardcore it sounds to me.

[@ChemyNoSurfea]

it's obvious a lot of this song turned into the sharpest lives and this is how I disappear

[@deadringerrr]

and the ghost of you

[@abdullahelnoursi7328]

Zookrates RG ghost of you was from two years before

[@rangeramarillo_]

Yes

[@musicalpanda2773]

[@rainbowsam2335]

I've had mama stuck in my head all day and my friend thought I was crazy when I told her about the re-release

[@tashikamala6917]

I have goosebumps and tears in my eyes.
my heart beats faster, only a little bit, it feel so much like home.
I smile, close my eyes, and I'm able to forget everything bad, every pain, every thought.
This is something only MCR can do to me.
And I am so thankful for that.

[@natediley7221]

Yes they work miracles

[@lizardthewizard6737]

this is the best comment I've ever seen on an MCR video because it really just explains everything

[@mstasproles242]

They do the same for me

[@glitchxmars7415]

they better make an official recording of this bc i have never so desperately wanted mikey's bassline and gerard's vocals to be less blurry. also can u IMAGINE if we got ray's bg vocals for this. id pass out

[@justinboshears-hazen9676]

this is the one MCR song ive never heard and I effing love it

[@joelrosado3011]

Sounds nothing like the original House of Wolves just so you know

[@LordAquadian]

Listen to the normal version

[@MrPieEducation]

The normal is actually a little better. It seems ridiculous but its true

[@annal1236]

This is the best day!! But im crying emo tears with eyeliner everywhere but im happy too. My soul cant take this

[@glendivenivan509]

14 years later and people continue to fall in love with this album every day

[@alyaana.]

I'm overloaded with MCRness and I'm dying

[@k2xxbox]

Because these are from the black parade recording sessions, those songs were recorded after the black parade was released.

[@bruh-gn5kc]

Bro this is the equivalent of that meme with the guy on the computer:
"Yo this song is really amazing, lets scrap it"

[@isaac.aaron.standen]

the introduction - that guitar - is so mournful somehow that it breaks my heart.

[@SixxIsTheMagicNumber]

That growl at 2:14 im so fucking shook

[@starshade479]

It sounds so much like this version of the song eventually became The Ghost of You and Heaven Help Us

[@MANJYOMETHUNDER111]

The Ghost of You was from Three Cheers.
