Now come one, Come all, To this tragic affair, Wipe off that make up, For sin is to spare, So throw on the black dress, Mix in with the lot, You might wake up and notice you’re someone your not, If you look in the mirror and don’t like what you see, You can find out first hand what it’s like to be me, So gather round ladies and kiss this goodbye, And encourage those smiles, And then split you might fly,

Oooh,

Another contusion, My funeral track, Has my resignation, A servulant lack, You’ve got front row seats to the penitent spot, When I grow up I want to be nothing at all,

Yeah, Say yeah, Yeah, Come on,

Give me your hand in my hand, Tell me that your, Tell me that one day, If you can hear me, Just walk away

. . .


And if your heart stops beating
I'll be there wondering
Did you get what you deserve?
The ending of your life

And if you get to Heaven
I'll be here waiting, baby
Did you get what you deserve?
The ending of your life won't wait
Then your heart can't take this hell

You heard the news that you're dead
No one ever had much nice to say
I think I never liked you anyway
You're dead
Free from the hospital bed
Wouldn't it be grand
Be exactly what you planned
And wouldn't it be great if
We were dead

All Dead!

So tired and oh so squeamish
You never fell in love
Did you get what you deserve?
The ending of your life

And if you get to Heaven
I'll be here waiting, baby
Did you get what you deserve?
The ending of your life won't wait
Then your heart can't take this hell

You heard the news that you're dead
No one ever had much nice to say
I think I never liked you anyway
You're dead
Free from the hospital bed
Wouldn't it be grand
Take a pistol by the hand
And wouldn't it be great if
We were dead

And in my honest observation
To ring this operation
Found a complication
In your heart, so long
Cause now you've got
Maybe just two weeks to live
Cause I - c'mon c'mon

Na-na-na-na's

If life ain't just a joke
Then why are we laughing?
Ain't just a joke
Then why are we laughing?
Ain't just a joke
Then why are we laughing?
Ain't just a joke
Then why am I dead?

Dead!

. . .


GO!

To un-explain the unforgivable,
Drain all the blood and give the kids a show.
By streetlight this dark night,
A séance down below.
There're things that I have done,
You never should ever know!

And without you is how I disappear,
And live my life alone forever now.
And without you is how I disappear,
And live my life alone forever now.

Who walks among the famous living dead,
Drowns all the boys and girls inside your bed.
And if you could talk to me,
Tell me if it's so,
That all the good girls go to heaven.
Well, heaven knows

That without you is how I disappear,
And live my life alone forever now.
And without you is how I disappear,
And live my life alone forever now.

Can you hear me cry out to you?
Words I thought I'd choke on figure out.
I'm really not so with you anymore.
I'm just a ghost,
So I can't hurt you anymore,
So I can't hurt you anymore.

And now, you wanna see how far down I can sink?
Let me go, fuck!
So, you can, well now so, you can
I'm so far away from you.
Well now so, you can.

And without you is how I disappear,
And without you is how I disappear,
Whoa whoa... (And without you is how I disappear)
Whoa whoa... (And without you... is how, is how, is how...)
Forever, forever now!

. . .


Well it rains and it pours
When you're out on your own
If I crash on the couch
Can I sleep in my clothes?
'Cause I've spent the night dancing
I'm drunk, I suppose
If it looks like I'm laughing
I'm really just asking to leave

This alone, you're in time for the show
You're the one that I need
I'm the one that you loathe
You can watch me corrode like a beast in repose
'Cause I love all the poison
Away with the boys in the band

I've really been on a bender and it shows
So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?

Give me a shot to remember
And you can take all the pain away from me
A kiss and I will surrender
The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead
A light to burn all the empires
So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be
In love with all of these vampires
So you can leave like the sane abandoned me

There's a place in the dark where the animals go
You can take off your skin in the cannibal glow
Juliet loves the beat and the lust it commands
Drop the dagger and lather the blood on your hands, Romeo

I've really been on a bender and it shows
So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?

Give me a shot to remember
And you can take all the pain away from me
A kiss and I will surrender
The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead
A light to burn all the empires
So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be
In love with all of these vampires
So you can leave like the sane abandoned me
[x2]

. . .


When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said,
"Son when you grow up, will you be the saviour of the broken,
The beaten and the damned?"
He said
"Will you defeat them, your demons, and all the non believers, the plans that they have made?"
Because one day I leave you,
A phantom to lead you in the summer,
To join the black parade."

When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said,
"Son when you grow up, will you be the saviour of the broken,
The beaten and the damned?"

Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me.
And other times I feel like I should go. Through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets.
When you're gone we want you all to know We'll Carry on,
We'll Carry on
Though your dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on
Carry on
We'll carry on
And in my heart I cant contain it
The anthem wont explain it.

And we will send you reeling from decimated dreams
Your misery and hate will kill us all
So paint it black and take it back
Lets shout it loud and clear
Do you fight it to the end
We hear the call to
To carry on
We'll carry on
Though your dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated You're weary widow marches on

And on we carry through the fears
Ooh oh ohhhh
Disappointed faces of your peers Ooh oh ohhhh
Take a look at me cause
I could not care at all Do or die
You'll never make me
Cause the world, will never take my heart
You can try, you'll never break me
Want it all,
I'm gonna play this part
Wont explain or say i'm sorry
I'm not ashamed,
I'm gonna show my scar
You're the chair, for all the broken Listen here, because it's only..
I'm just a man,
I'm not a hero
Just a boy, who's meant to sing this song
Just a man,
I'm not a hero
I -- don't -- care
Carry on
We'll carry on
Though your dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated You're weary widow marches on
We'll carry on
We'll carry on
We'll carry on
We'll carry
We'll carry on

. . .


Well, when you go
Don't ever think I'll make you try to stay
And maybe when you get back
I'll be off to find another way

And after all this time that you still owe
You're still the good-for-nothing I don't know
So take your gloves and get out
Better get out
While you can

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did Yesterday"

Sometimes I cry so hard from pleading
So sick and tired of all the needless beating
But baby when they knock you
Down and out
It's where you ought to stay

And after all the blood that you still owe
Another dollar's just another blow
So fix your eyes and get up
Better get up
While you can

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did Yesterday"

Well come on, come on

When you go
Would you have the guts to say
"I don't love you
Like I loved you Yesterday"

I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday

I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday

. . .


House Of Wolves
Well, I know a thing about contrition,
Because I got enough to spare.
And I'll be grantin' your permission,
'Cause you haven't got a prayer.
Well, I said, hey, hallelujah,
I'ma come on, sing the praise.
Let the spirit come on through ya,
We got innocence for days!

Well, I think I'm gonna burn in hell,
Everybody burn the house right down.

And I'll say, ha, what I wanna say!
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.
Tell me I'm a bad man,
Kick me like a stray.
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.

(say it lover say it)

You play ring around the ambulance,
Like you never gave a care.
So, get the choir boys around you,
It's a compliment, I swear.
And I said, ashes to ashes, we all fall down,
I wanna hear you sing the praise,
I said, ashes to ashes, we all fall down,
We got innocence for days!

Well, I think I'm gonna burn in hell,
Everybody burn the house right down.

And I'll say, ha, what I wanna say!
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.
Tell me I'm a bad man,
Kick me like a stray.
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.

You better run like the devil,
'Cause they're never gonna leave you alone!
You better hide up in the alley,
'Cause they're never gonna find you a home!
And as the blood runs down the walls,
You see me creepin' up these halls.
I been a bad motherfucker
Tell your sister I'm another!
Go! Go! Go!

And I should say what I wanna say.
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.
Tell me I'm a bad man,
Kick me like a stray.
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.

Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
So get up
So get down

Yes I, yes I, yes I am

. . .


Turn away,
If you could get me a drink of water
Cause my lips are chapped and faded
Call my Aunt Marie.
Help her gather all my things,
and bury me in all my favourite colours.
My sisters and my brothers still.
I will not kiss you.

Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you.

Now turn away.
Cause I'm awful just to see.
Cause all my hairs abandoned all my body
all my agony.
Know that I will never marry.
Baby, I'm just soggy from the chemo,
just counting down the days to go.

It's just ain't living.
And I just hope you know.
That if you say goodbye today.
I'd ask you to be true.
Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you.

Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you

. . .



Mama, we all go to hell.
Mama, we all go to hell.
I'm writing this letter and wishing you well,
Mama, we all go to hell.

Oh well now, Mama, we're all gonna die.
Mama, we're all gonna die.
Stop asking me questions, I hate to see you cry,
Mama, we're all gonna die.

And when we go don't blame us, yeah.
We let this fire just bathe us, yeah.
You made us oh so famous;
we'll never let you go.
And when you go don't return to me my love.

Mama, we're all full of lies.
Mama, we're meant for the flies.
And right now they're building a coffin your size.
Mama, we're all full of lies.

Well mother what the war did to my legs and to my tongue.
You should've raised a baby girl,
I should've been a better son.
If you could counter the infection,
they can amputate at once.
You should've been,
I could have been a better son.

And when we go don't blame us, yeah.
We let this fire just bathe us, yeah.
You made us oh so famous;
we'll never let you go.

She said, "you ain't no son of mine,
for what you've done there.
You'll find a, a place for you.
And just you mind your manners when you go."

And when you go don't return to me my love,
that's right.

Mama, we all go to hell.
Mama, we all go to hell.
It's really quite pleasant except for the smell,
Mama, we all go to hell.

Mama, Mama, Mama, ohhhh.
Mama, Mama, Mama, ohhhh.

[Liza Minelli:] and if you would call me your sweetheart,
I'd maybe then sing you a song.

[Gerard:] but the shit that I've done with this fuck of a gun,
You will cry us to rise up alive.

We're dead after all.
Through fortune and fame we fall.
And if you can say that I'll show you the way,
and straight from the ashes you crawl.

We all carry on,
Like our brothers in arms are gone.
So raise your guns high for tomorrow we die,
and return from the ashes you'll fall.

. . .


Some say, now suffer all the children
And walk away a savior,
Or a madman and polluted
From gutter institutions.
Don't you breathe for me,
Undeserving of your sympathy,
Cause there ain't no way that I'm sorry for what I did.

And through it all
How could you cry for me?
Cause I don't feel bad about it.
So shut your eyes,
Kiss me goodbye,
And sleep.
Just sleep.

The hardest part is letting go of
Your dreams.

A drink for the horror that I'm in
For the good guys and the bad guys
For the monster that I bare
Three cheers for terroring me
Unapologetic apathy
Cause there's no way that I'm coming back again

And through it all
How could you cry
For me
Cause I don't feel bad about it
So shut your eyes
Kiss me goodbye
And sleep, just sleep
The hardest part
is the awful things
that I'm seeing

Just sleep
Just sleep
Just sleep
Just sleep
Just sleep
Just sleep

([Screaming:] "WAKE UP")

. . .



They're gonna clean up your looks
With all the lies and the books
To make a citizen out of you

Because they sleep with a gun
And keep an eye on you son
So they can watch all the things you do

Because the drugs never work
They gonna give you a smirk
Cause they got methods of keeping you clean

They gonna rip off your heads,
Your aspirations are shreds
Another cock in the murder machine

They say that
Teenagers scare the living shit out of me
They could care less
As long as someone don't bleed
So darken your clothes
Or strike a violent pose
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me

The boys and girls in the click
The awful names that they stick
You're never gonna fit in much, kid

But if you're troubled and hurt
What you got under your shirt
Will make them pay for the things that they did

They say that
Teenagers scare the living shit out of me
They could care less,
As long as someone don't bleed
So darken your clothes
Or strike a violent pose
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me

Ohhh yeah!

They say that
Teenagers scare the living shit out of me
They could care less,
As long as someone don't bleed
So darken your clothes
Or strike a violent pose
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me

All together now!

Teenagers scare the living shit out of me
They could care less,
As long as someone don't bleed
So darken your clothes
Or strike a violent pose
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me

. . .



Well I was there on the day they sold the cars for the queen
And when the lights all went out, we watched our lives on the screen
I hate the ending myself, but it started with an alright scene

It was the roar of the crowd that gave me heartache to sing
It was alive when they smiled and said, "you won't feel a thing"
And as we ran from the cops we laughed so hard it would sting

Yeah yeah, oh

If i'm so wrong (so wrong, so wrong) how can you listen all night long? (night
long, night long)
And will it matter after i'm gone? because you never learned a god damned thing

You're just a sad song with nothing to say about a life long wait for a hospital
stay
Well if you think that i'm wrong, this never meant nothing to you

I spent my high school career spit on and shoved to agree
So I could watch all my heroes sell a car on tv
We've got the obvious scene, we'll show 'em what we all mean

Yeah yeah, oh

If i'm so wrong (so wrong, so wrong) how can you listen all night long? (night
long, night long)
Now will it matter long after i'm gone because you never learned a god damned
thing

You're just a sad song with nothing to say about a life long wait for a hospital
stay
Well if you think that i'm wrong, this never meant nothing to you

So, go, go, just go, run away.
Now where did you run to? and where did you hide?
Go find another way...

Woah oh, woah oh...

You're just a sad song with nothing to say about a life long wait for a hospital
stay
And if you think that i'm wrong, this never meant nothing to you, come on

You're just a sad song with nothing to say about a life long wait for a hospital
stay
And if you think that i'm wrong, this never meant nothing to you

At all, at all...

. . .


Now I know
That I can’t make you stay
But where’s your heart
But where’s your heart
But where’s your...

I know
There’s nothing I could say
To change that part
To change that part
To change...

So many
Bright lights been cast a shadow
But can I speak?
Well is it hard understanding
I’m incomplete
The life that’s so demanding
I get so weak
And all their souls are burning
I can’t speak

I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay, I’ll be forgiving
Nothing you can say can stop me going home

Can you see
My eyes are shining bright
Cause I’m out here
On the other side
Of the jet black
Broken mirror
And I’m so weak
Well is it hard understanding
I’m incomplete
And all their souls are burning
I get weak

I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay
I’ll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going

I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay
I’ll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home

These bright lights are
glowing bright at me
These bright lights are
glowing bright at me
I said

I see you lying next to me
With words I thought I’d never speak
Awake and unfraid
Asleep or dead
[x4]

I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay
I'll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home
[x3]

. . .



Well they encourage your complete cooperation
Send you roses when they think you need to smile
I can't control myself because I don't know how
And they love me for it honestly I'll be here for a while

So give them blood, blood
Gallons of the stuff
Give them all that they can drink and it will never be enough
Give them blood, blood, blood
Grab a glass because there's going to be a flood.

A celebrated man amongst the gurneys
They can fix me proper with a bit of luck
The doctors and the nurses they adore me so
But it's really quite alarming cause I'm such an awful fuck (why thank you!)
I gave you blood, blood
Gallons of the stuff
I gave you all that you can drink and it has never been enough
I gave you blood, blood, blood
I'm the kind of human wreckage that you love!

. . .


hear the sound
the angels come screaming
down your voice
I hear you've been bleeding

make your choice
they say you've been pleading
someone save us

heaven help us now
come crashing down
we'll hear the sound
as you're falling down

I'm at this old hotel
but can't tell if I've been breathing or sleeping
or screaming or waiting for the man to call
and maybe all of the above
cause mostly I've been sprawled on these cathedral steps
while spitting out the blood and screaming
someone save us

heaven help us now
come crashing down
we'll hear the sound
as you're falling down

and will you pray for me?
or make me say don't leave?
and will you lay for me?
or make us change?

cause I'll give you all the nails you need
cover me in gasoline
wipe away those tears of blood again
and the punchline to the joke is asking
someone save us

heaven help us now
come crashing down
we'll hear the sound
as you fall

and would you pray for me?
(you don't know a thing about my sins)
(how the misery begins)
or make us say don't leave?
(you don't know)
(so I'm burning, I'm burning)
and will you lay for me?
(you don't know a thing about my sins)
(how the misery begins)
or make us change?
(you don't know)
(cause I'm burning, I'm burning)

cause I'll give you all the nails you need
(I'm burning, I'm burning again)
cover me in gasoline again

. . .


Gonna take off all my skin,
Tear apart all of my insides,
When they rifle in,
Mom and Dad think you'll be saved,
They never had the time,
They're gonna medicate your lives,
You were always born a crime,
We salute you in your grave.

Can't find my way home,
But it's through you and I know,
What I'd do just to get back in her arms,
Can't find my way home,
But it's through you and I know,
What I'd do just to get back in her arms.

[Spoken in background]
(Well my gun fires
seven different shades of shit,
So what's your favorite color, punk?)

Do you wanna hold my hand?
Could you sign this photograph,
'Cause I'm your biggest fan,
Would you leave me lying here?

We're not here to pay a compliment,
Or sing about the government,
Oxycontin genocide,
Adolescent suicide,
I'll give you my sincerity,
{Don't give} a fuck about a Kennedy,
Here's what I've got to say.

Can't find my way home,
But it's through you and I know,
What I'd do just to get back in her arms,
Can't find my way home,
But it's through you and I know,
What I'd do just to get back in her arms.

No way home why
[x4]
[in background]
We've got to go
[x7]

Can't find my way home,
But it's through you and I know,
What I'd do just to get back in her arms,
Can't find my way home,
But it's through you and I know,
What I'd do just to get back, well, in her arms.

I can't find the way
[x6]

Come on angel, don't you cry
[x4]

. . .


Well you can hide a lot about yourself,
But honey, what're you gonna do?
And you can sleep in a coffin,
But the past ain't through with you.

'Cause we are all a bunch of liars.
Tell me, baby, who do you wanna be?
And we are all about to sell it,
'Cause it's tragic with a capital T.
Let it be, Let it be, Let it be!

'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends.
(Bababa, bababa)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
(Bababa, bababa)
It's been eight bitter years since I've been seeing your face.
(Bababa, bababa)
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place.

Sometimes I scrape and sink so low,
I'm shocked at what you're capable of.
And if this is a coronation,
I ain't feeling the love.

'Cause we are all a bunch of animals
That never paid attention in school.
So tell me all about your problems;
I was killing before killing was cool.
You're so cool, You're so cool, So cool!

'Cause we all wanna party when a funeral ends.
(Bababa, bababa)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
(Bababa, bababa)
It's been nine bitter years since I've been seeing your face.
(Bababa, bababa)
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place.

You'll never take me alive.
You'll never take me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
'Cause I'm still here.
You'll never get me alive.
You'll never take me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
And I'm still here.
You'll never take me alive.
You'll never get me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
And I'm still here.
You'll never get me.
(Still here!)
You'll never take me.
(Still here!)
You'll never get me alive.

'Cause we all wanna party when a funeral ends.
(Bababa, bababa)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
It's been ten fucking years since I've been seeing
Your face 'round here.
And you're walking away, and I will drown in the fear.
