Cemetery Drive
My Chemical Romance · Life On The Murder Scene [2006]
This night
Walk the dead
In a solitary style
And crash the cemetery gates
In the dress your husband hates
Way down
Mark the grave
Where the searchlights find us
Drinking by the mausoleum door
And they found you on the bathroom floor
I miss you
I miss you so far
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard
Back home
Off the run
Singing songs that make you slit your wrists
It isn't that much fun
Staring down a loaded gun
So I won't stop dying
Won't stop lying
If you want, I'll keep on crying
Did you get what you deserve?
Is this what you always want me for?
I miss you
I miss you so far
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard
Way down [8x]
I miss you
I miss you so far
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard [2x]
Way down [9x]
Walk the dead
In a solitary style
And crash the cemetery gates
In the dress your husband hates
Way down
Mark the grave
Where the searchlights find us
Drinking by the mausoleum door
And they found you on the bathroom floor
I miss you
I miss you so far
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard
Back home
Off the run
Singing songs that make you slit your wrists
It isn't that much fun
Staring down a loaded gun
So I won't stop dying
Won't stop lying
If you want, I'll keep on crying
Did you get what you deserve?
Is this what you always want me for?
I miss you
I miss you so far
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard
Way down [8x]
I miss you
I miss you so far
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard [2x]
Way down [9x]
